Wichita: Sedgwick County Zoo

Noah and I spent one of our days in Kansas at the Sedgwick County Zoo with Papa, Aunt Holly, and one of my friend's from high school, Kellie, and her three daughters.

One of our favorite activities when we go to the Sedgwick County Zoo is feeding the giraffes! The feeding session didn't go quite as well this time, however.  Noah started off by throwing a piece of food at one of the giraffes, so then the giraffe wouldn't come anywhere near Noah! When we went over to try and feed a different giraffe, Noah dropped the food before the giraffe could take it, which then made this giraffe hesitant to come near Noah again...but finally after a little assistance from Mommy, we were able to actually get some food to the giraffes!




When we went to the tiger house, the real tigers weren't out but we did have the opportunity for some good photo ops :)

 Who needs a stroller when you have Papa ;-)

In the barn with Papa, Abi & Noah (yes, Noah is barefoot...every single time his feet left the ground his shoes came off! You can take the boy out of Hawaii but you can't make him wear shoes ;-)

Petting Zoo!


Once the animals figured out Noah had food, they went a little crazy!
 

 
 Noah loved this goat!


 
I took a picture of this guy because when the zoo keeper girl (I have no idea what her technical name/position is) asked Noah what shape was on the goat, Noah replied... "Mickey!"
The rest of us saw a heart, but when you look at the inside of the heart it really does look like Mickey Mouse!
