We brought the “wild life” to the zoo

Spring Break came to a fantastic end with a visit to the zoo.  It was, like any of our outings, a wild time.

Little man managed to stay in the stroller for a record 10 minutes before prying his way out and insisting he walk.  Luckily, he seemed to have a reasonably healthy respect for the animals and we only caught him trying to do this

a couple of times.

My sweet princess was completely mesmerized by the animals and loved each one more than the last.  She did, however, provide us with a running commentary regarding the “stinkiness” of each new animal we visited.  That’s my girl!

Jake and I really enjoyed the day with our kids.  The house building has caused us to miss more than a few workouts lately.  At the zoo we did lots of heavy lifting, ran several sprints, and completed a 3 hour test of our endurance. Better than a gym!

We left the zoo with two happy little sleeping babies in the back seat and a napping mommy in the front seat.

That’s a good day!
