A Day At The Zoo

We went to the zoo on the only warm day we've had this entire summer! It was really fun. The boys enjoyed it so much. We went with my friend Holly. She invited us to go with her since her son, Andrew's kindergarten class was going that day.

One of Bennett's favorite parts of the zoo is the ducks and other water fowl. I think that's really odd since he sees ducks all the time, but thats what he wanted to stand and stare at. If you notice the backpack he's wearing. That was my attempt to keep him close at hand. He's a runner. He's one of those kids that are Hudinies (i actually don't know how to spell that so you'll have to sound it out) basically he's an escape artist. I thought he would like the bear backpack and then I wouldn't have to push him around in the stroller. He did like the pack, he just didn't like me holding the leash.

Jacks rode in the stroller through most of the zoo. So he just kind of chilled. He did seem to perk up during the monkeys and the ducks, but that was about it. Poor boy. It seems like he misses out on everything.

The lions and tigers were also a big hit. Bennett and the other boys stood forever growling at them. When it was time to go he got really sad and said in a pouty voice, "See ya later tiger" Then he took off running.
