I'm traumatized. We went to the zoo and Jack licked a llama's TONGUE!

[LaraMN]

I was holding him so he could lean in to pet it, it lifted it's nose up to Jack's face, and Jack just dove in and licked its tongue.

Jack looking at the "hop, hop, hops" (bunnies).




Jack feeding a goat. I couldn't get far enough away to get the goat in the picture. Every time it ate a kibble out of Jack's hand, Jack started giggling hysterically. The goat was a little miffed at Jack because other kids were feeding it handfuls of kibble, and Jack would only give it one little pebble at a time.


Me trying to explain to Jack why he can PET the animals, but he can't climb into their pens. He was supremely pissed at me.

1. Greatest kid evah.

:rofl:

[LaraMN]

2. He got REALLY crabby after about all of an hour,

because he wanted to get inside all the exhibits. He spent the last half hour swatting at random people and whining about the fact that he ran out of dill pickle chips. He is sooo high maintenance!

18. OT, but the Down Syndrome Association in MN has some

fantastic stuff available regarding curriculum modification. I just met with my friend who has a daughter with Down Syndrome to re-write her IEP and there was a ton of stuff I found on the net from that group. The educator packet in particular was fantastic for this little one's needs.

5. Do you find it disturbing that your son knows how llamas taste now?

[LaraMN]

11. Ew!

I'll just add it to the list of things I can't believe I watched him do. (Which is exceedingly lengthy.)

[Sanity Claws]

6. Think about how the llama's mama feels!

Her baby's tongue got licked by a boy!

[LaraMN]

[LaraMN]

14. Jack was not interested in the polar bear exhibit.

He was too busy eating chips.
:eyes:

[Blue-Jay]

15. Ya gotta have priorities.

[mduffy31]

23. That boy just doesn't know what he is missing

Bubba and Berlin are awesome!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

16. jack is awesome~!

[Gormy Cuss]

19. That boy is something else.

Llicking llamas... only JackMN would think of that.

Love the picture of him through the glass.

[Orrex]

20. Yikes! He's been llamanated!

Better to lick a llama than kiss a camel, I suppose.

[texas1928]

21. After the incident.

[derby378]

22. Face it, Lara - your boy is a future Steve Irwin

Prepare him for a rewarding career with wildlife!

And then you can hold that llama story over his head... :toast:

[Rising Phoenix]

24. I love that kid of yours....

:loveya:

[peacefreak]

25. This oral phase

has led us all to places we never thought we'd go. He's a true connoisseur to want dill pickle chips on the side!

[Beer Snob-50]

26. remember that young kids had a higher tolerence for cooties

and especially cooties from cool animals that lick like a llama.
