Pot bellied Pigs

Today was agriculture and tractor day at the school (yes we are definitely in the south now!) so I took Aiden to the highschool to check things out.  Besides the tractors which we didnt really look at, people had brought their show animals in.  Aiden got to see and pet some new animals for the first time! He was not a fan of the pigs!  He would not pet them or get close to them, he would just snuggle into my arms.  I then took him over the the horses.  He pet them a few times but didnt seem to be in love with them.  They might have been a little big for him!!  we then moved on to the chickens and roosters. he was not a fan of either and I dont blame him.  They were making lots of noises so I think that might have scared him a little bit.
the last animals we saw and my favorite of the ones there were little bunnies.  They were little babies and super soft.  Aiden touched them a few times and then would snuggle in my arms real quick.  He seemed more intrigued by their cage. He would open and close the cage several times.  A few times he tried to reach into them, but could not reach down that far. 
I hope he learns to love animals as he grows up, but he doesnt have to raise them and show them! :) 
It was a fun break from our normal routine and a great way to show Aiden some different things, it was all outside so at least I know he enjoyed that part!
