The Zoo

Yesterday we decided that since we only have a few nice days left we would go to the zoo with whoever wanted to go. It turned out that a lot of people wanted to go. We got up bright and early and got to the zoo 10 min after it opened. In fact we were the 2nd car to park in the parking lot! The first and third were some of the people who came with us. Morning time is definately the time to go to the zoo. The animals were all so active! We saw the Polar bears swimming, the elephants were running around making quite the dust cloud and the Amur tiger triplets were rommping around having a blast. We had a few first time zoo visitors with us. Fox (11 months old) he had an amazing blast, Henery (9 months), and Olivia (16months) whose dad is a new student this year. Kenna wore herself out running all over the zoo with Kyle, and Spencer her two little buddies. While in the petting zoo combing a goat it went ahead and relieved itself on her shoe, she was not impressed and I was completely grossed out! Also in the children's zoo they have a tractor that the kids can play on. This took a good half an hour. Bryn was cute and hung out in the stroller she likes to be sitting up now all of the time so I adjusted the stroller seat to accomidate her she looked so big. She was a big hit at the zoo among the adults, I am sure it was because of the cute purple bow on her head! I guess she is huge for her age, everyone told me how fun the 6 month age is, I agreed with them and then told them that she was 3 months. Bryn loved the large river Otters and watched them dive and swim around forever her eyes wide open. One swam over to the window and she jumped a little and than began laughing.

Looks like fun! I wish there was a good zoo close to here. I never realized how few and far between zoos really are!

p.s. The purple bow is the cutest thing! I can't wait to have a little girl! 2 more days...

Kenna, he's a cutie. Keep a hold of him *wink wink*.

Brynlee is growing so fast. She's getting cuter and cuter with every posting.
