A Day at the Zoo

Even though a typical day at home feels like the zoo we actually visited the St. Louis Zoo on Monday. It was a gorgeous day so the girls and I met Christina and baby boy for a fun day out. Worried that after we spent an hour or so there they may want to keep Ava I belted her in the stroller tight, so no worries she did come home with me! It was a perfect day to walk and enjoy the day outdoors. All of the kids were amazingly good and behaved so well. We got to see most of the animals, Ava's favorite were the Sea Lions. They were getting fed whem we were there so they were barking loudly and frequently. Ava had to chime in as she was bobbing her head up and down barking along with them. Jenna loved the Penguins. I actually had to restrain her from trying to jump in the water. The new area is really neat, they are literally right there swimming next to you that as they come to the surface you get splashed with water. Jenna is already planning our next trip for the Spring!

Glad you had a great time - lol@ the zoo keeping Ava! We took Georgie to the zoo at the ILs during the summer but she still seemed a little too young to really enjoy it... I think DH enjoyed it more! But then again he is an ape in disguise! ;)
