Zoo Fun

This week I decided I was going to take all three kids to the zoo, by myself.  We had a lot of fun, but it was a lot of work keeping up with all three of them, especially now that Garrett is walking.

Garrett love animals and he was squealing so loud people thought he was throwing a fit, but he was really just super excited.  

 Addie was diligent about taking pictures.  Her camera hasn't worked since shortly after she got it, but she was taking pictures like a champ.

 Addie and Ben were pretty good about staying together,

 And Garrett was all about going his own way.

 He looked like such a big boy trying to look at the animals.

 Ben was a little too brave, right after I took this picture he kept climbing and was almost ready to jump over the fence, Yikes!

 Orangutan Bennett.

 Monkey Addie.  She wasn't quite tall enough for this opening so she jumped up and is hanging on by her little fingers.

 Here is ground hog Addie.

 Addie and Ben had fun steering the boat.

We had a lot of fun, but I was exhausted by the time we got home.  It was all worth it though because through out the day Addie kept bursting out with "This is the best day EVER"  How can you complain when you have made your child's day?  Even though it is crazy trying to get out and about with them it is always worth it in the end.
