me and the girls visiting the elephants
the orangutans...we could have stayed there all day, the kids loved watching them and I must say they were pretty funny! It was a nice cool day so they were much more active than ive seen in awhile so it was super neat!
Ok, so for awhile Shelby's favorite animal has been the giraffe. She had seen the commercial for Busch Gardens where the kids feed the giraffe and LOVED it. She would get so excited whenever she saw it and always said after it was over... "Shelby feed giraffe". She had been waiting all week for Alexia to get here so we could go see the giraffes...and let me just say, the giraffes did not disappoint! She was so excited to see them. Ill post some videos of the kids feeding them because its super cute! Shelby did very well and fed the giraffe and was so excited because he licked her!!
For hours and even days after she still said " the giraffe licked me" but it comes out lick-ed me too cute :)
next was the petting zoo. I wasnt sure how well Shelby would do here because last year when we went to San Diego she wanted nothing to do with the petting zoo. That was too close for her and I wasnt able to even put her down without her starting to cry! Well, what a difference a year makes!! She had a blast this time! They have some brushes when you walk in that you can get and go brush the animals...shelby thought that was great!! Her and lex brushed every animal in there i think! We had to practically pull them out!
Some photos of the girls with the hippo statue
this was a good pic Jimmy got of us girls! My mom, sister, me and the kids :)
Often times Jimmy is the pic taker, because I suck at it, so hes not in a lot of them but he goes everywhere with us and me and the girls love him to pieces!!
here we are at the stingray bay. Lex still hasnt touched one :( everytime we have gone both here and the san diego zoo she gets a little scared and pulls her and out at the last second! Too funny, oh well maybe next time :) Shelby i dont think got to touch one either because her arms are too short lol but she tried and had fun splashing in the water!
the seals. It was nice to see they got a new nice and clean tank to swim in!
photos outside the reptile room
sisters :) they have so much fun together!!
alexia, jacob and Nik
in all the years ive lived here and gone to the zoo ive never watched the bird show...this time we did and it was so fun! Poor Shelby tried to stay awake but crashed about halfway through...but the rest of us had a fun time! These pics were taken after the show as we were walking out
it was a great fun day and we cant wait to go back! Im betting we will be spending lots of time at the zoo this summer! Next day for sure is the Ice cream social! We went last year and it was a blast! Looking forward to it again this year :)
