Zoo Trip!

A trip to the Pt. Defiance zoo over Spring Break was mandatory, and YAY for the weather cooporating! It was beautiful, blue skies, a slight breeze warm. Once home though, and I heard the temp for the day, I was surprised at the high being only 54... seemed way warmer! Guess that is warmth from being in the 30's and 40's lately. ;)

Though the day was not on our side at all, supposed to be at the zoo by 10... we didn't arrive till 11:30. Major tired mommy, and lazy morning kiddos, needing to feed the car and traffic made us quite late. hehehe, but at the same time, our friends that we were meeting up with were super late too, same lazy kid morning and traffic. Despite the lateness we both were happy to meet up and strangely neither of us were affected by being super late. This may be the fact that life with more then one kiddo is full of lateness and learning to be flexible. Of course we kept texting and calling stating new late factors. It became quite funny!!

Life is so grand!

Pics are in no certain order, (blogger was being a bit of a pain while loading), but there was a TON of fun and William LOVE, LOVED his first trip to the zoo!

Nolan and William enjoying the animals and being pushed during their first trip to the zoo!

William getting a chance to walk around a mural of fish. He loved pointing at the all and saying 'oooh'


Isabelle and Paige playing in the touch aquarium. They did such a good job and really loved being able to touch some of animals!

Then they got to color some sea animal pictures. Isabelle made hers for William. She is such a sweet big sister! She even hung it up on teh fridge for him when we got home!

The girls pretended to be snails!



Isabelle found a seahorse, along with Nemo and some other coral fish. Those pics didn't come out so great.


She also found the ONLY mud puddle in the grassy area that we ate lunch near.


Paige and Isabelle loved the Artic Foxes. They both wanted to bring one home.


Cute Girls at the zoo!


They both wanted to try and squeeze into the stroller. Somehow they succeeded. Bruka and I took turns pushing that stroller.

So glad we got a picture of you and the kids too! So many times, us mommies get pictures of just the kids or our husband and kids. Looks like a fun day!
