Family Fun Day!

Thursday is family day at the zoo so since the weather finally cooperated we packed up the kids and went on a family date (When we had the little man we started making a point to have Daddy/Peanut dates and Mommy/Peanut dates and daddy/mommy dates so that she knows some things are kind of a special, so today was a family date.) The only problem with just packing the kids was that when we got there, we realized we had left our stroller in the garage, at home. Luckily our Zoo is quite small so we did alright without it. It was still such a fun afternoon, it just got a little hot for the little man (it was 48 degrees last week, no joke, when we had a picnic at the park and then today it was 70 degrees). We had to wait in the shade a lot while daddy took Miss Peanut to look at the animals.
Giraffe slide - always a hit:

I think we have a budding botanist on our hands because every limb and leaf we came in close proximity to, he was reaching for it with great concentration. So cute!

We finally broke down and bought a hat for the little man because I was worried he might get a little sun burnt. It gave him just enough shade that he fell asleep.

Miss Peanut got take her first ride on a carousel with Daddy. She loved every minute of it!

They played a little game of "musical animals" because Daddy wanted her to be able to be on one that would go up and down. My favorite picture of the day!
