So we had a fun little experience the other night. A friend of ours invited us to go see some baby bear cubs. His son is dating a girl that works at Yellowstone Bear World and they are housing the cubs at their house. They were so tiny and cute. Three of them were 3 months old and the other 3 were 6 weeks.
When we got there the bears were asleep and they had to wake them up. They were hungry and all they wanted to do is suck. Ashley was warming up their milk and told us to just let them suck on our hands. Well......one of the cubs was climbing up on Madi and started sucking on her ear and then started sucking on her cheek!!And this is what happened!! She got a couple of bruises because the cub was sucking so hard!!! It was so funny!! She was laughing so hard because it tickled!! Madi now has to take a picture of this to school so that the kids will beleive that these bruises are from a bear cub!!!
It took Wyatt a little time to get used to them. He was kind of nervous at first. I think he thought they were going to bite him. He had a hard time letting them suck on his hand, and he wouldn't let them get close to his face!!
When they feed the cubs they feed them out of a little baby bottle. It's so cute to watch them!! This one wanted to just go back to sleep.
Oakleigh layed down on the floor next to them for a minute. That was about as close as she wanted to get to them. She didn't want to hold them. I even tried to get her to pet them, but that NO WAY!!!
Even Bryan had fun with them!!!
The kids loved every second of it and wanted to stay for ever!! Thanks Gary for inviting us!! And thanks to Grant and Ashley for letting us into their home to see these cute little cubs!!!
