Jack had a great time with me and Grandma Nold at the zoo on Friday! He was very interested in watching the animals, and he behaved exceptionally well--especially considering he napped very little. We took him to the petting zoo, and at first he happily petted a goat. Unfortunately, one of the goats decided that the bottom of Jack's shoe was a great place to scratch his head. Jack got a little freaked out when the goat kept pushing its head against Jack's foot, so after that Jack wasn't willing to touch any more animals.
Jack still loves to do "so big."
Here's a polar bear getting some relief from the heat in his pool.
Jack loved the monkey house, where this picture was taken. Though I'm not sure what fascinated him more--the monkeys, or the big skylights and waterfalls.

Some gorillas snuggled up together taking a nap.
And finally, this was Jack within about five minutes of leaving the zoo. As per his usual, the monkey blanket is in his mouth.
So, all in all, a very successful first trip to the zoo! Maybe on our next trip, Jack will have enough stamina to see all the animal exhibits. Between the heat and Jack's being tired, we only saw about half the park this time.
