Talk to the Animals


This weekend we had a chance to talk to all sorts of wild animals. After we got all our work (okay, MOST of our work) done on Saturday morning, we made an impromptu visit to the Zoo. We didn't pick the best day to go. The place was packed with people since they had their annual fund raiser that morning. But the weather was nice and we got to see quite a bit in the short amount of time we had.

walked right behind his head just as I snapped the picture.


One of the guides showing the girls a Madagascar Hissing Cockroach.
(Yes, the ones they ate on Fear Factor. Yes, Alyssa actually touched it.)


Me, McKenna and Liam on the train

The girls had a great time, minus the part about not seeing a hippo. (Kenna was really disappointed.) We did get to see the white alligator though. A good opportunity since I guess he is going home to Louisiana next week and there are only 10 of them in the world. The rest of the weekend was filled with this animal....

I am teething! My gums hurt...

Showing off the new teeth he sprouted about a week ago...

We had a great weekend!

Looks like good fun. You look fabulous - i love the picture of you on the train. Sorry for the tooth monster. I am sure that doesn't feel good.
