"Will, hold the goose and I'll climb on his back!"

We are addicted to animals.

The boys talk about the zoo, lions, bears, puppies, monkeys all the time! Pretty much anything that is furry and makes cool noises is right up their alley.

Will sleeps with his favorite zoo book. He can tell the difference between a rhino and a hippo. He loves to talk about giraffe long necks. Will makes a funny elephant noise too.

Ben loves to pretend he is a puppy. Josie taught him to fetch too . (What are big sisters for?!) He loves to tell you about the stripes on the zebra and monkeys in the trees. There are now dinosaurs at the zoo for the summer. Out of 8 kinds of dinosaurs, Ben runs straight to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, points up and says, "T-Rex Mama! T-Rex!!"

We have a trail near our house. On the trail are a bunch of fake animals. There is a ceramic gator, turtle, and frog. There is also a fake goose on someone's back porch that backs up to the trail. The boys get so fired up to see the animals on our walk. They want to pet each one. Unfortunately the goose is the perfect size for them to try to sit on.
