So one day last week. Carter starts in with his usual.
Him: What are we doing tonight Mommy?
Me: Going to the gym to clean it.
Him: What are we doing tomorrow then?
Me: (about to start in with probably just going to be around here doing around here stuff .. then switched it to---) Well, we could go to the zoo!
Him: Eyes popping out of his head-- BUT the zoo is berry berry far away!! We will have to wake up berry berry early!!
And so began the excitement of going to the zoo.
After which i wondered why. in. the. world. did i suggest something like this.
The weather was only going to feel like 130 that day.
Nice for us, we have a zoo only about 45 minutes away. Some years i get a membership so we can go as many times as we want. I just recently discovered our year is about up, so that explains the sudden go to the zoo day!
Ok, and also i need to explain that our going to the zoo day only usually lasts around 1-2 hrs. Partly thanks to well, umm,, ME! I like to keep things moving. See that animal? Cool.. now lets go see the next one!! Carter is pretty much like me, except for this time some of his daddy came out in him when he had me read each sign saying what kind of animal it was. :)
And what do we have here? Seems as if some monkeys got out of their cage...
Checking out one of the many creatures!!
You can walk right in with the kangaroo.. Pretty cool. My 4 yr old just was dying to run right over and pet them...
We spent alot of time watching the fish. Partly because it was AC and partly because they both really enjoyed watching them...
Check out her reflection! :)
We had a fun morning. My two are at a really fun stage right now. I'm glad we ventured out in the heat and did something different for a change.
And believe it or not!! We were there a lil over 2 hours!! :)
Speaking of hot..
This brought a smile to my face.
Thankful for AC?
YES WE ARE!!!
