Day at the Farm

We had the best time at this children's farmstead park near Kansas City. The best part was that is was free! Abigail LOVES animals, so she was so happy there. They had lots of wild animals, and little petting zoo areas. They even had a little fishing hole, and pony rides. This picture of Abigail and Kole is dark, but they just look so cute together. Abigail literally is at his heels 24/7. She copies everything he does; and he's so gentle with her and just kind of stares at her like a true guy, as if to say " what is up with her?!" Kole keeps all of his toys in a little pile and carries them around, so Abigail won't take them. She knows exactly which ones are his too, the ones she cannot take, and goes straight for them. So, it was nice to catch a sitting still moment with them.
Abigail is not afraid of animals at all, which I get a kick out of. She just walks right up to dogs, goats, whatever, and would pet all over their face if I would let her. She loved these little goats--they were just her size.
Kole, Abigail and I enjoying the farm.

We were able to buy a bottle of goat milk to feed the little baby goats! This was our favorite.

And here is "fearless" Abigail feeding the goat herself! Although, she got a little confused and attempted to drink the bottle thinking it was her own bottle. That was a little difficult to explain, but ultimately, she shared with the goat!
What fun to watch our little girl enjoy things in the world and having little first experiences like this one!

Abigail is so precious! The petting zoo looks like a lot of fun. Next time we go to KC I'll have to get directions from you.
