Saturday Excursion with Grandad

Petting "Zoo"

A couple of weeks ago, we went by Sikes Farm again, and this time around I think Jaxon appreciated all the animals a little more than the last time we were there a year ago.

As we drove slowly through the farm, the little boy pointed excitedly at the animals.

There were many baby animals there that day, and the first one we saw was a baby donkey with its momma.

Jaxon called out "Mama horsey, baby horsey!" when he caught sight of them.

We saw some Llamas, but I didn't manage to get a picture of them. We did see a whole bunch of goats, though, and there were several that were just a couple of days old.

At first Jaxon felt pretty brave about wanting to reach out and pet them, but when he got closer to them, he seemed to change his mind :)

We may have to make this a yearly visit, as the little boy will be able to appreciate things so much more differently as he gets older...

But I suspect he will always like his Rice Crackers and Naps after an "exhausting" excursion.
