Day at the zoo with the boys!

Mikko was super content just hanging out in the stroller the whole time. He just had to be holding his new Thomas the Train book and he was content.
Exploring a tunnel.


Checking out animals, still holding on to the book.


Looking at fish, with his book.


The otters were so fun to watch swimming.


Showing the wolf his Thomas book.


David got a trinket for his "Collection Box"


That is a big bear!


I swear he was smelling Mikko.


David though the "Dinosaur" bones were pretty cool.


Poor Mikko. I hadn't really planned our trip well. We had started the day planning to go to Underwater World, but David was sleeping in the car and I wanted him to nap longer so I decided to drive to the MN Zoo instead. But I wasn't prepared for how cold it was. We wandered through some of the outside displays and poor Mikker's hands were so cold. He didn't seem to really mind, and we warmed up on the Monorail. Some kids were dressed in sundresses so I wasn't the only un-prepared Mom at the zoo.



Luckily Daddy had a hat that was left in the stroller that kept him a little warmer.


Happy kid!

Had a really fun trip to the MN Zoo (unplanned) on Saturday. Daddy was working all day so I ventured out with the boys. The weather was icky which kept most of the people away so we had lots of space to roam by ourselves. The boys were great. We ended up buying a membership on the way out because the boys both really loved it this time. Last time we went Mikko was afraid of every animal. Can't wait for another trip. Next time with Daddy though!
