Brookfield Zoo






My mom, Bethany, and I took the three kids to Brookfield Zoo in Chicago on Friday. We met my Mom's friend Marie up there who knows the Zoo well. Marie got us in to see the Butterfly Garden, which was Makenna's favorite thing by far. She also made sure we got into the Children's Zoo, and also to see the Stingray's at Stingray Bay. Mark and Madison tried to pet a Stingray, but never did. However, I had the unfortunate experience of actually touching one. It was the grossest thing ever! Makenna was so fun to watch because she was just in awe at everything. She even loved Mooing at the cow, and actually pointed at the ducks and said, "Duck." The only downfall was she didn't like looking at the Brown Bear and the Polar Bear because all she was focused on was the Ball they were playing with! She just kept saying, "A Ball, A Ball, A Ball!" It was so funny. Although it was a long day, overall the kids had a great time.
