Love the zoo!

The girls and I went to the Lowry Park Zoo today and had a blast! I am totally exhausted though. It was a gorgeous day - about 82 degrees. Both of the girls tripped and fell at least once today (not a surprise) and Lindsay got herself good and was bleeding all over the place. Luckily, at the camel ride there was a lady that was much more prepared than I (she was still carrying a diaper bag) and gave us an alcohol wipe and bandaid. Lindsay did NOT like that alcohol wipe but a mom's gotta do what a mom's gotta do. You know, I used to be prepared for anything. When I carried a diaper bag and pushed a stroller it was so much easier to pack anything and everything you might need. Gone are those days...

Anyway ~ I haven't resized the pics of the animals yet - but I did manage to get a few pics off my camera of the highlights of the day. We fed the giraffes crackers, rode the camels...and the girls cooled off in the water fountain thingie in the kids park. You can click on the pics for a better look.



eeeww! did you see the tongue on that giraffe? Jessica was sticking her tongue out all afternoon after that, trying to imitate the giraffe. lol


This is Jess before the water shot up in her face...

and this is after...
