Afternoon at the Zoo

After BSF and haircuts we decided to spend the beautiful afternoon at the zoo. I didn't even bring a stroller because I thought we would see how tired we could get these kids. I think their two favorite things at the zoo are the little animal statues and the parks...not the animals! Ella is kissing the turtle since she couldn't fit on the back.
Ella loved the goats! She was super sweet to them, but does scare easy when it comes to just about any animal or insect. She encountered a pheasant and a few other birds that she was not super excited about...maybe she gets that from her Aunt Jenny.
Haynes on the other hand is the most nurturing, rough-and-tumble, 3 year old boy I've ever met. He absolutely LOVES the birds and is so gentle with them. He really liked this one because he thought it was saying "Thank you!" for the treats. What a polite birdy!?!
Haynes and Lolli were the tough ones in the bird area. Port, Ella and I attempted for a while but were just fine watching from the outside!
Treats and snacks to end our day at the zoo!
