"Baby Ammals"

The American West Heritage Center does a Baby Animal Days event every spring.  I took Atticus and met up with my friend Natalie and her two kids, Kennedy and Zadok.  Atticus LOVED it.  He kept randomly shouting out "Baby Ammals!" and every animal he saw he'd get excited and announce "I touch ammal!".  I was surprised how eager he was.  The first animal we saw was a donkey and Atticus petted him without hesitation.  Poor Kennedy was less enthused but she warmed up.

 Atticus loved on the donkey and goat while Kennedy was so displeased.

 Kennedy was feeling a lot better about life. 

 Kennedy was a little nervous about getting on the horse.  As it turned out, she was afraid of the man.  So they switched to a woman and all was well.

 Love this kid.  We watched Kennedy ride a horse.

 This was his favorite part.  He's asked several times since then if he can hold ducks and chickens.  He cried when he had to put them down.

This poor duck.  He wanted so badly to get away from Atticus.  Atticus just wanted him to sit on his "yegs".
