Zoo Fun!

It was a cloudy, dreary day here so we headed to the zoo. Makes sense huh?!? We had the most wonderful time, just the 3 of us. We only have a single stroller now and it worked out better than I thought. L & S took turns riding and no one fought to ride but rather fought to walk! We rode the carousal right away when we got there. Next up was a walk to find where S's birthday party will be held. We found that after some detours to check out other cool things along the way. They really enjoyed the Wallaby Walkabout which included a spiderweb to crawl on, a cactus to slide down and even a wallaby to pretend play with. We eventually found the area where S's party will be. I was happy with it. Looks like a fun place to celebrate his birthday. We had lunch, which everyone ate well!! Then we thought about taking a ride on the paddle boats but after finding out that someone would have to sit alone, we decided to save that for a day when Daddy could join us. We had such a nice day with no sibling fighting and just tons of fun for everyone! Being home with my kids to enjoy days like this is truly a gift. I am such a lucky wife and mom!!!!

p.s. Isn't my new camera just the best!

p.p.s Last night L had a bad dream and wanted her mama, so I got to sit and hold her like a baby on the couch for about 30 minutes. I bet that hasn't happened in a year or more. I LOVED it!!
