Maddie's First Trip to the Zoo
Denver, Colorado: June 8, 2007


Maddie went to the zoo on Friday with her mom, grandma, and uncle. It's a lot for a 14-month old to process. Here she is before going in, apparently wondering why she is the only one in the group without sunglasses.

The hyenas were hard for her to understand because they were far away and not moving much. But Mike did catch some video of the new baby hyena.

She really liked the goats. We think the fact that they were moving about helped her find them.

Monkees are weird - she really didn't know what to make of them.
