Zoo Trip 3 and 4

Leighton talks about the Zoo a lot! Lucky little guy got to go to the zoo Thursday and Friday this week. Thursday we went with Grandma Julie and Friday we went with lots of moms from the Downtown Church: Meg Rude with Quinn, Rex and Myla, Carla Richey with Kaisa, Jenny Schreiner with Owen, Jill McGargill with Hannah and Josiah, and Bethany Geiken with Malachi.

My sweet boys in their new stroller.
McCabe likes his new stroller. He loves this postion, with his feet up on the bar!
Watching Sea Lions in the Sun!

NEW STUFF
1. Seeing Giraffes REALLY close up in the look out area. We have seen them every trip but they were so close to us today. They are very cool looking animals.

Leighton and Quinn enjoyed watching the Giraffes from the upper lookout deck.

2. Little Penguins. It took 4 trips for us to see the little penguins. I am not sure where they were the first 3 times, but I was glad they were here. Leighton was happy to meet them too. He loves any and all things that swim in water.


3. Riding the BIG Red Train! Leighton rode the train with my on Thursday while McCabe and Grandma Julie hung out. He rode it again with friends on Friday. He likes to tell Daddy all about it when he gets home!



4. The Lion Feeding was cool too. His story of the day was about how he saw lions eat meat! These pictures are terrible but it was incredible to see this animals stand up on their back legs. Their paws are huge, their head is huge and their bodies are huge. It was nice to be there for the feeding because the animals actually come close and you get a good idea of their massive size.
