Maeby & Tigers & Bears!

We took Maeby to the zoo in Portland with our friend Mindy for the first time and here are some things we saw:



A Larikeet. They have this very cool enclosure set up where you get to go in and just walk around while dozens of these beauties fly all around you.


We hadn't planned on snow that day - but we made the best of it. It actually made the whole experience quite unique and beautiful.


Two mamas and their babies.
Oh, and some random kid who kept stepping into my shot.
The baby elephant was by far one of the most adorable things I've ever seen.



Well, aside from that, of course.





Look at how wide her eyes are. This is her looking at an elephant (one of the big bulls) for the first time. It was one of the only animals she reacted to all day.


This chimp took advantage of the weather by helping herself to some home-made snowcones.











Larikeets french-kissing. Or something. Whatever it was it certainly looked lascivious.


She likes to chew on her snail these days - gum it - more than sit and suck on it.


a Sun Bear




She really liked sitting on the wooden horse. A lot. She sat there for a good 15 minutes.

By the end of it she was quite tuckered out! What a trooper!!
