Team Ostler: field trip at the zoo

field trip at the zoo

The preschool year is wrapping up and Jimmy got to go on a field trip to the zoo. I went with him and took Luke along for the ride. My friend Sarah watched Ben for me. I couldn't believe how easy it was to go on an outing with just two kids. I think that three just puts me over the edge some times. We enjoyed the day. Luke was so good. He just enjoyed the scenery and stayed nice and cozy in his stroller. It was a little chilly. Jimmy had fun. His favorite animals were the zebras. We also got to go into the animal hospital and watch as they worked on a baby gazelle. They had to pull a tooth and do a biopsy on his kidney. Jimmy thought that was cool.

Jimmy was getting pretty tired by this time. We were walking along and all of the sudden he just stopped and layed down. His little legs walked a lot that day.

This is inside the pachyderm building and it was very stinky. Jimmy didn't want to stay there very long. If you've seen one elephant you've seen them all.

We were at church and during the sacrament I was talking to Luke about Jesus. I told him that Jesus bled and died for us. Luke looked at me with a very concerned look and said, "Did Heavenly Father give Jesus a band-aid when he was bleeding?"

We were about to walk out the door so I told Luke to go potty. He came out of the bathroom saying, "I can't go! The batteries in my pee pee are dead!"

After Ben finished a big meal he said, "my tummy is so big and full I look like Grandpa now!" (sorry dad).

Ben pointed to a picture of the prophet and said, "That's President Monckley!"

We have a saying in our house. It's "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!" But Ben has his own version of this. He says "you get what you WANT and you don't throw a fit!"

Jimmy said that he is allergic to babies. I asked him how he knew and he said that he gets sick when he smells them.

Ben asked me for another piece of halloween candy and I said, "Mommy is ready for the halloween candy to be gone" and Ben said, "Yea, gone in my mouth!"

We were driving past the gas station sign and Ben said, "I see a lowercase 5 on that sign."

I was talking to Jimmy about election day and asking him if his teacher voted and he said that she was "absent" that day. (I finally realized what he meant. She had just mailed in an absentee ballot.)

Ben put a whole bunch of toilet paper in the garbage and I told him that is a no, no. He said, "no it's a yes, yes!"

I tell Jimmy on a regular basis that needs to talk nicely. He yelled something across the room to me and I gave him the look that said I didn't like the tone of his voice and he said, "I was yelling nicely!"

Jimmy and I are listening to "Give Said the Little Stream" and Jimmy says "How does it talk?" I said "How does what talk?" He said, "The stream, it doesn't have a mouth, how can it talk?"
