Today was Hailey's first trip to the Minnesota Zoo since a warm day in November. We limited ourselves to the outdoor exhibits to avoid viruses. (Hundreds of small children in tight indoor spaces never used to scare me...)
Hailey's favorite animals were the bears. As soon as she saw them she said "bee," her word for her stuffed bears at home. Despite knowing at home that different animals make different sounds, she kept saying "ruff - ruff" for everything from the bears to the prairie dogs.
New words today: deer, for pictures in a Snow White book, not the real deer at the zoo, and glasses, for the picture of eyeglasses on her "G" block.
