Today was an awesome day with the family. We got up early and took the kids to the zoo. It was so fun. It was a bit windy, but perfect weather for a trip to the zoo. We looked at the flamingos and birds first and made our way around to Africa.
It was lunchtime and it smelled good, so we sat down for some chili cheese fries and a drink. We got Bub a little souviner bear cup and he loved it!!
We were just about to start back after we took a little bathroom break when Noah took off running. Dustin chased after him, but Noah tripped and landed head first on the pebbly ground. Our poor baby. We were debating on taking him to the ER or going home since he did land head first, but we thought we better just keep him up for a while and keep an eye on him. We took sister out of the stroller and put him in it. At first he was sad and not really spunky like he was, but he started pepping up the more we walked around.
Soon Noah was doing better and wanted out, so with a little hesitation, we let him run around. Everytime he would take off running, Dusty and I both almost had a panic attack.
Toward the end of our zoo trip, we came across some signs that said "Help us feed the wild birds" and there was an enclosure of birds. I wasn't going to go in there because we wouldve had to leave the stroller since they werent allowed in there. Finally I just took Bub. They had two big trees with tons of colorful birds and one big white bird in the middle.
They sold seed sticks for $1.00 but we had people giving them away as we walked in, so we took them. All you had to do was put your stick near the birds and arch your finger as a perch and theyd land on your hand. It was the most awesome thing at the zoo I've ever seen. They only do it on weekends, so we'll have to remember!! Noah was a little squimish, but all in all he liked it. I tried to get Dustin to go in, but he wouldn't. Bird Pooper!!!
On the way home, Noah was so worn out. That was so much fun and I can't wait to do it again!!!
Going, going, going...GONE!!!
