It was so nice to get out of the house this morning and visit the zoo with Niki and Brecken! We all had a great time stretching our legs and taking in some different scenery!
I didn't bundle us up to go to the outdoor exhibits so we spent a lot of time with the fish and birds today. We usually skip over that part of the zoo during the summer so it was kind of new for the kids.
Brecken was a big fan of the fish!
And her cousins, she was laughing at Piper running up and down the big ramp to the tropics exhibit. We can't wait until she's toddling beside them!
We even made it to the bird show. We have never made it to one of the shows, we are always on our own schedule and not in the correct part of the zoo to make a show. Brecken loved the birds! She squaked right along with them. I thought Reagan would really love the bird show too but she was just kind of so - so, she does not like owls, they are too big and scary. Piper, ever the student sat and intently listened to the presenter and after they brought the bald eagle out she said, "hey, that's the national bird" or something to that affect. It was a fun morning even though it was high school field trip day and it was busy. I was glad it was high school students though, they were all very well mannered and stayed out of the way for the girls even when the girls were right in the middle of their groups. It was funny, at first Piper kept scanning the crowds for Maddie (Jason's cousin) and then she even thought she spotted Kathleen and got really excited.
