This child LOVES animals!

We have always known the Grant loves animals! He likes to make the sounds" that they make, look at their pictures and even pet them, so today was such a joy for him! We went to a Fall Festival with Grant's Nanny and Pop and much to Grant's delight there was a petting zoo. He nearly jumped out of his stroller to see the animals.

At first he was very smitten with the calf or "baby moo cow" as we called it. He ran right up to her, gave her a nice pat and looked her straight in the eye and said "Moo!" Way to cute! He stood by her for several more minutes patting and mooing before moving onto the duck.

The duck was not so sure he liked the way Grant was running to see him so he took off, with Grant in hot pursuit. Grant never did catch that duck but laughed really hard while running after him.....good enough.

Next he moved onto the funny looking chicken with feathers on it's feet. It happened to be cornered by the water bowl so Grant got to sneak a quick pet before the chicken hopped off. Then in true boy fashion Grant stuck his hand in the water bowl. (Mommy though yuck - every animal drank out of that!)

The goats and sheep are always popular with the Little Mister too. They are have always been the nicest and the most tolerate of the many "loving child pats". This proved true today too. All the goats and sheep stood by patiently as Grant "patted" their fur and loved every minute of it!

What a time fun time we all had today. Thanks Nanny and Pop for going with us and for the tokens!
