Z-O-O

Andrew: That spells zoo, Mom! We were lucky to venture out last Tuesday with Uncle Fr. Jon, Aunt Cara, & baby Jonathan to "the big zoo"!
After receiving a scuba diver Playmobil set for Christmas, Andrew has been extra fascinated with marine life. I think he would have sat in the aquarium tunnel all day! A big highlight was seeing scuba divers in the tank cleaning off the big sea turtle.
Teresa spent the afternoon making noises as crazy as the animals! Rebecca was having an extremely big girl day. She refused to ride in the stroller most of the time... which is always her preference. She wasn't frightened by all of the sharks, stingrays, snakes... in fact she was delighted! At one point she even had her hand up next to the glass as if a huge crab had it within his claws. Who is that big girl?
The rainforest, desert dome, & aquarium are all inside, so even though it was rather "brisk" walking between, we could still enjoy the zoo during our less-than-springy weather. Those three are big enough to be their own adventure without the need of the outdoor animals anyway. ; )
All the monkeys.
I like this one because even Teresa is waving good-bye!
Thanks for a fun time Cara & Fr. Jon!

  1. The zoo pictures are so cute!!! We were just there on Thursday, and yet again today. It is Jadeon's 2nd home! One time, we sat in the aquarium for an hour and 45 mins! He LOVES ocean life/sharks/stingrays/etc. so we should get him and Andrew together sometime :) Gianna doesn't care so much, just wants to crawl around, ha :)
