Zoo

On Wednesday my bestest friend Janelle and I took the munchkin's to the zoo. Her adorable younger sister's were staying with her for the week and she wanted to do fun things with them, and luckily me, Jax, Ella and Gabe got to tag along! We got there shortly after it opened to avoid the heat....yeah right! Although it was a much more comfortable temperature than in the middle of the afternoon. But it was still rather warm! The kids didn't seem to mind though, they were too busy running around looking at all the animals. Jax was the most excited to see the giraffe's because his favorite animal...that goes EVERYWHERE with him is a giraffe, whom Jax has lovingly named Giraffeee...however Jax was not overly fond of the stench inside the giraffe exhibit. Actually none of us thought it was a particularly appetizing smell, I think Jax was glad that is beloved Giraffeee doesn't smell like that. Ella was content to just sit in her stroller and look at the animals and everything going on around her. That is until I let her get out of her stroller for a minute....BIG mistake! She threw a fit every time I tried to put her back in, surprise surprise. The kid's weren't too happy when it was time to leave, but let's face it, there are only so many hours you can spend at this zoo, it's not one of the more spectacular zoo's, but the kids love it and that's all that matters. Thanks for lettin us come to the zoo with you guys!!
