Checking out the elephant. Delaney is very into animals and the sounds they make. So far, she knows what a cat, dog, bee, sheep, cow, elephant and tiger all say. We have a set of animal magnets and she knows all of the different animals in the set, so trips to the zoo are becoming more fun as she gets more into it.
This was also the very first time that Delaney went down the zoo slide all by herself. She loves slides and there were no other kids there this morning (a perk of the cold weather), so she tried it and loved it. She looked so little on the big slide, but she had such a great time and went down it several times with no fear whatsoever.

She had a huge grin on her face the whole way down every time. I was worried it would be hard to pry her away, but offering a ride on the horsey (aka carousel) made it fine to leave.

Oh, and she insisted upon climbing on her own bench at the play area. She couldn't sit with us, she had to sit on her own bench all by herself.
They both look surprised I'm taking this picture. And when I say that she wants to ride a horsey, I actually mean she wants to ride the puppy. There is one husky dog that she insists upon riding on. She then says "puppy" throughout the entire ride.
