Nana and Grandpa came up this weekend to take Isaac to the circus. We had tickets for the 11am show on Saturday, but we showed up early so we could take Isaac down to the floor to enjoy the pre-show. I wasn't sure how he would react once we got down there and got close to the clowns. From my past experience, kids either love the clowns or are terrified of them. Isaac, of course, loved them. He was amazed by their tricks and probably would have been content to hang out with them all day. His favorite part though was the animals. During the pre-show, Asia the elephant came out to paint a picture. When she came through the door, his expression was priceless and he clapped and clapped. It was too cute. 
We made our way up to our seats to enjoy the show. For a one and a half year old, I thought he did pretty well as far as having to sit on someone's lap for almost 2 hours. He did get squirmy, but it was nothing an elephant cup of icee couldn't fix. Nana and Grandpa spoiled him absolutely rotten...popcorn, icee, glowing light wand, and even a picture on the plastic elephant!
After the show we made our way around to the animal open house. They had the elephants, tigers, zebras, and horses in fenced off areas in the parking lot. Isaac loved seeing the animals. We only had to grab him twice when he tried to climb under the barricade to go up and touch the elephants! Crazy kid, I'm so glad that he loves animals as much as he does!!
Here is Isaac meowing at the tiger!
