Dr. Doolittles

We had a lovely, lazy Saturday yesterday. We probably broke some parenting rules as well. We decided since it was cold and dreary that it was a perfect movie day. Then the girls decided that they wanted to watch "Jurassic Park". Greg and I kind of looked at each other and thought, "Why not?" We figured we could skip any part that was too intense and just explain how everything was fake. Everything seemed all fine and dandy until they dropped the cow down for the raptors to eat then it continued ok until the power went out on the island. Then it was all a blur between Tati laughing, Chloe hiding under a blanket and me fast forwarding. After the kids went to bed, we watched Harry Potter and suddenly appears Tati crying, telling us our movie was too loud and it sounded like dinosaurs were walking in their room. Greg finally turned on their Primary cd to listen to so they could feel safe. I guess we won't be watching Jurassic Park 2 for a while. ;-) I actually told Greg I forbid Jaws until they are at least 16 because once you watch Jaws, there is no going back and swimming will never be the same.

Anyway, after all the drama of the dinos, we decided to get out of the house and headed over to this little festival. There wasn't much to do at the festival but they did have an awesome Petting Zoo. The girls went nuts in there. Chloe was determined to hold a goat but they all wanted to run away from her. She finally settled with a cute little bunny who sat patiently on her lap and let her pet her. Chloe said it was because her jacket was so soft that the bunny wanted to sit with her.
Tati held a rooster (bad idea), a bunny and then a baby goat. The little goat was so cute! We want a baby goat. The only problem is that the goat would grow up. The little goat just sat on Tati's lap so cute and still and then the next thing we knew, the goat was SLEEPING! It was so funny and so cute. Tati sat there for like 10 min. just with this smile on her face while the goat slept.

It was fun to get out with the girls and do something as a family!
