EIEIO

Sophie has been singing Old MacDonald with me, or at least the 'eieio' part so it was appropriate that we go to a local farm today with our friends to check out some animals. We saw small animals first like a lizard, hedgehog, bunny, ferret, bird, tortoise, etc. Sophie was not interested in the small animals at all! I'm not sure if she was really afraid or just not interested. She kept pointing at the cats and dogs that were loose in the barn. Then we went outside to check out the larger animals and she LOVED it! There were pigs, which she kept grunting at and pointing and announcing 'pig!' to make sure I saw them. She liked the goats and wanted to feed them bread, but all their loud grunting made her a little nervous to get too close. Then there was the horse and pony, which Sophie really loved. She kept saying 'pony! pony!' and I could hardly get her to leave. She even petted the big horse, which surprised me. :) Brave and curious little girl.... Here are a few pics.

Bored with the small animals....
