We had a blast this afternoon at the zoo. We met up with friends Jamie and Ariel and their kiddos Olivia and Titus. It's probably been over a year since Belle's been to the zoo. She was really excited. And she got over the fact that there were no mermaids at the zoo. =)
Belle started out with her "leash" on, but it didn't last long. All in all she did ok. You just can't take your eye off her for a second, because the girl has no fear. I tried to atleast keep her in the stroller between exhibits.
The "leash" came in handy later though when Titus gave it a try. It lasted about as long on him as it did on Belle.
I'm proud of Belle. She did a lot of things she would never do before. She touched the goats and fed the giraffe.
Ethan was golden. I didn't hear boo out of him the whole time. I thought for sure he'd fall asleep, but he didn't. I think he was just taking it all in. He was such a good boy. Jamie freed him from the stroller and I imagine he was glad to stretch his legs for a bit.
And I was reminded again how hard it is to get little ones to sit for a picture.

Love it! Your camera takes great pictures :) I'm glad you had it today. I'll have to give that toothpick trick a go with titus...maybe that will persuade him to eat...

Too cute! It looks like you all had a great time. I use the same "leash" for both kids and can't wait to get to the zoo this year!!!
