THE ZOO.
We were so excited to take Chloe to the St. Louis Zoo. We waited to take Chloe to the zoo until she was a little older and it was worth the wait. She really had a great time and so did we.
She tried to get away from the Python, who could blame her.
We came upon the giraffes and everyone was feeding them so Brad joined. I have never seen giraffes this close before. This guy was looking old.
Awww...the mother elephant and her baby. I couldn't help but think of the cartoon voice of the baby elephant from The Jungle Book. "Wait for me mama!"
We were really excited to see the penguins.
The happy couple and the angry child. Let's see...does she want to leave, is she too tried, or does she not want to leave the zoo?? Honestly, we had the greatest time. The St. Louis zoo was AWESOME.
We borrowed our friends bike trailer and took some thrilling rides during the week. Chloe would giggle and squel when she saw me or her little friend in the other trailer. It makes me so happy to hear her happiness!
The guys pulling the kids.
And...we had to let Starsky have a fun day, so we took him to the doggy luau. I guess I didn't realize that the doggy luau would be in the public pool. The pool had closed the day before and so the pool was free game for the dogs. They swam and swam. Starksy is a little water shy so he just "got to know" the other dogs there. Starsky bubbled from the mouth and we knew he had a great time.
What a terrific time we had. Part 1 of Kirksville...complete. Part 2 of Kirksville to be continued.

We are taking Megan to the zoo this Saturday. It looks like you had so much fun! We have a bike trailer and kid bike seat that we love to go on family bike rides with.
Great update... Nice to see some pictures of your week off with Brad. We loved the St. Louis zoo. I can't believe it is free because they really have a lot of neat animals to see. Didn't you love the penguin house? That was our fav. Love ya EM
Looks like the whole family, including Starsky, had a great week! How fun--I've heard the St. Louis Zoo is pretty awesome!
YEAH to be a 2nd year- officially! and Yeah for your really cute zoo pics!!
The zoo is the best!! Can I just say little Chloe is wearing the cutest outfit in your zoo pics. SOOOOO adorable!!
I love the zoo. Little Chloe looked so pretty. And I am still cracking up about the dog day thing. :)
It's so nice to have that first year over! I thought the second year was much easier because we were all adjusted to med school life. Congratulations!
