After school one Friday we headed to the zoo. It was perfect timing. It was cool, there was hardly anyone at the zoo at that time, and we didn't hit traffic either way. We skipped the zoo this summer because I just can't handle the heat, I know I'm kind of a wimp like that. So the kids have been wanting to go for a while and dad actually got to come with us so it was great!
They are quick zoo viewers. They don't look at anything for more than 30 seconds so we are always on the move but they love everything they get to see. We had a scraped knee with some crying and then it was time to go, we made it out just before they fell apart!
Their favorite part was playing in the prairie dog tunnels. Up and down, up and down.
Here are some shots of a Sunday after noon when I desperately wanted to take a nap and they wanted some mom play time. They don't get much time with just me now because while the other two are sleeping the girls are at school so it is 4 on 1 the rest of the afternoon. So another thing to feel guilty about. Some how they ended up taking some pictures on my phone. I love when they smile for real!
When I am talking to the girls lately about having to do something they don't want to or learning something hard, Rachel's new line is "It's easy for you to say, most of your life is over with already." Thanks tv, I don't know what show she got that from but I don't appreciate it!
