Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Yesterday I took Shayla to a little farm around here with some of her besties and their Moms. We went as Moms because it is a 1.5 mile walk to get there and we like exercise. Plus the kids get to see all of the animals we teach them the noises of.

Shayla LOVED it. She loved seeing the cow and moo'd at it. She loved feeling the sheep wool. She loved watching the ducks and hens. She was one happy little girl to be wandering around that farm.

If there is one friend she loves to get into "trouble" with, it's Kate. Those two cute little girls kept walking around a corner of a barn while the Moms were sitting and chatting and then would come back laughing and giggling. We wondered what in the world was going on, but knew they couldn't get into any trouble so just let it pass and let them continue with their game. Then we heard it...

COCKADOODLE DOO!!!

Two little shrieks followed. Then we saw them running to save their lives, Shayla climbed on my lap and just about around my neck and continued to scream as this rooster came ambling around the corner. Kate wasn't quite as traumatized but we got a really good laugh out of it. He was with us for a bit and every time he made his call Shayla would look at him like he was crazy! By the end she would laugh every time she heard him. I guess it's a lot funnier when you're in Mama's arms.

I wish I had pictures of that particular moment! She sure keeps my life interesting and fun!
