Owen loves animals. I can honestly say that he has gravitated towards them from birth (okay maybe not birth, but you know what I mean!). His two favorite pals are our dogs, Boomer and Bella. His new favorite place to stand is at the baby gate, where he is locked OUT of the kitchen, and the dogs are locked IN! He just stands there and giggles and talks to them for as long as we let him! We are convinced that his first word will not be 'mama' or 'dad' but rather some version of 'Boomer' and 'Bella'! He already makes the 'b' sound over and over....so he is probably halfway there!
Well, the circus is here and their tent is set up less than a mile from our home! It is one of those 'old school' circuses with only a few animals and a real live tent! What a treat it has been to walk down there (almost daily) to let Owen see and 'chat up' the animals there! Today he had a lengthy conversation with the Camel and the Camel actually talked back. It seemed very interested in Owen and stretched it's neck out as far as it could trying to reach Owen through the bars! The picture was the best I could get of the interaction, but trust me....the camel was MUCH closer than that! :)
