the zoo

We had a FEW days that felt like fall around here. . .those days are gone again, but we took advantage of the cooler weather last week. After school on Friday we took Bryce to the zoo. It was Tanner's first trip to the zoo, and believe it or not, it was the first time I had been, since before I got pregnant! I was either too sick, or too swollen and uncomfortable to go when the boys went over the past few months.
There are a few new babies at the zoo. . .the giraffe, who is SO big, and SO small all at the same time! Also a new baby jaguar, and the cutest of cute - two BRAND new baby squirrel monkeys, riding on their mamas' backs. (One of them was only TWO DAYS OLD!!!)

And proof that OUR little baby really was there. . .here he is. He slept almost the whole time we were there. He was awake to see the lion, and Bryce was so cute, he said "Don't worry Tanner, the lion is behind glass. He can't hurt you!!" How cute!!

We will go back to the zoo in a few weeks, for their annual Halloween "Spooktacular". It's basically trick-or-treating in the zoo!!! It's a ton of fun, and we've gone the last two years.
