Honestly it is my favorite place to go as a family. We had the most beautiful weather on Saturday and tried to soak up as much of the sun as we could. However, the traffic was terrible and it took us over an hour to get there!! But, it turned out great and I will remember playing in the grass with my kids that day forever.
The coolest thing happened while we were searching out the elephants. As Supergirl was calling to them, and Superboy was doing his best elephant imitation (basically spitting with his hand at his mouth like a trunk) we hear the monkeys going crazy! We wheel on over and there are two Asiamangs in a tree right by the pathway. Note: we have NEVER seen the asiamangs when we go to the zoo, they are always hiding, or not even there. So, the fact that they were even visible was pretty cool. But these two monkeys were calling, and screaming and hooting so loud back and forth to each other. One would start to swing on a branch and make a call that sounded so much like a Tarzan yell that it was funny. We stood there for a long time just watching them goof off. Everytime they would yell Supergirl would turn to me and say, "Silly monkeys" and Superboy just sat in his seat mimicking them "Hoo Oooh!". It was a great day.
Daddy and HIS little monkeys
Me and dimples
Supergirl was trying so hard to keep Superboy sitting
Exploring
Supergirl LOVES the carousel!
Superboy's new "cheesy smile"
The "cheese" face. Whenever he sees a camera, this is what he does, and says, "chee".
The bellybutton, or as Superboy would say, "Bellbutt". Of course, once he finds his own, he wants to find yours too, so look out!
The backpack. Oh he just loves wearing this pack around the house and pushing the stroller. He loves to mimick his big sister. Sometimes even baby gets to take a ride.
Ready to roll!
