Zoo

On Tuesday of Aunt Reagan and Tessa's visit we were able to take a trip to the zoo! We had so much fun, the zoo was practically empty...which was a good thing because it is hard to get around with 4 kiddos and strollers! The boys are big enough to be out of their stroller, but for long walks like the zoo it is nice to have. They are not strapped in, so they can jump out and look at animals, or sit back and let Daddy do the hard work when they get tired! :)








Our all time favorite is always the polar bears, and it was a special treat this time to watch the polar bear actually play in the water! Gracie's new word is "Dah" for Dog. She called all the animals "dah" at the zoo.





On previous visits, Luke has always been a bit hesitant around any of the apes, but on this visit he did really well and was not scared at all!




Of course it isn't a trip to the NC Zoo without a classic Rhino picture!






A pretend helicopter ride...



Sharing some cherrios...



Car ride home....exhausted but glad to have a wonderful day together! (Notice that Luke is old enough now to sit in a big boy booster! He loves it!)
