Trip to the Zoo!

We have been wanting to take the kids to the zoo and since this weekend was still the cheaper rates we decided might as well take advantage of it! It was kind of scary with how cloudy it was this morning and it spit rain a little on the drive there...but luckily it was perfect (well, to me anyway) while we were there. It was cool enough that there weren't many people and just right with a sweatshirt on. I'm glad it was cooler since I wore Korbin in the wrap most of the time and that little guy produces a lot of heat!

The boys actually had quite a bit of fun. They got bored with the stroller fast of course, which made a lot more work for us, but we made it through! I think they both had the most fun feeding the goats since they could actually interact with them. It was kind of a bummer that a lot of the animals were still put away. There weren't any giraffes and even the camel wasn't out (we were upset on this one since the website said it would be and you can ride on it). Oh well, I guess that's why it was cheaper. We did decide that maybe later in the summer we would try going to the Omaha Zoo and see if they enjoy that more since it's a lot bigger.

Here are a bunch of pictures from throughout the day

Ready to go in!

He could care less where we go as long as he has mommy

My view lol Don't worry I moved his head after this

Checking things out

He liked the seals swimming by

Bentley while watching the seals with daddy:)

One of the few animal shots I took. 

Lol

He made this face and jumped back after feeding this goat one little piece of food over and over! It was hilarious to watch!

He was scared of the goats at first but since big brother enjoyed it so much he decided he could too

He had to go through the tunnel to go where you could see the prairie dogs from the middle of their area...but he didn't look at them just kept crawling lol

Daddy and the oldest two boys

My baby woke up!

 After seeing the animals we let them go into the gift shop. Here we had a major meltdown from Jax because he was convinced he wanted a Robin (from Batman) with a yellow cape. Well first we had to tell him that we were at the zoo so he could get something with an animal but they didn't have Batman toys. We didn't bother mentioning that Robin doesn't even have a cape. He finally settled down after we said he could go to Target when we got back home. Here they are once we got in the car.

A mess once again!

Holding onto his new lion.

Gone!

We made a few pitstops on the way home but didn't get too much. I picked up some flip flops for the boys and I at Old Navy and got them a few things in Story City. I also got to stop at Michaels and get some things which is actually where I was at 1pm (today's photo theme) so here is some of what I picked up!

I could spend so much on stickers! Especially since I tend to get more than one of a lot of things now!

Now it is way past my bedtime though and Korbin keeps waking up since I'm moving my arm too much (he's laying next to me right now) so I suppose I'll stop and get a little sleep before he gets up at 6am again!
