Zoo Trip!

On Friday, the kids didn't have school so we went up to the Zoo.  We called Grammie to see if she wanted to come with us.  We had so much fun!  The twins are at a fun age to take to the zoo.  They watched everything with awe.  I am loving my camera still, and love capturing their little faces as they observe the world.  

 This little monkey came right over to the window to look at Jace and Grammie.  I LOVE his face in these pictures!  

 Of course, we brought a picnic lunch.  

 The tiger was pacing up by the fence.  

 The kids each then took a turn showing me how the tiger roars.  

 Yes, his face melts my heart.  

 It's no wonder people look at me like I'm crazy.  These kids all look like they're the SAME SIZE!  :)

 Once again, while visiting the gorillas, we were educated in more than we bargained for.  Naturally, the kids hadn't forgotten about the last time we were at the zoo, and the gorilla pooped in his hand and then ate it.  So we went in there expecting the worst again.  We were not disappointed.  THIS TIME, there were two gorillas sitting on a branch.  One pooped, the other one scooped it up and ate it.  Lovely.  Can you guess what was the highlight of the zoo trip?  Yuck.

 These next few pictures might melt your heart.  I just adore being mommy to these crazy ones!  

 Yep, this one on the elephant makes me cry.  They are so stinkin' cute.  I can't believe that they are all mine!

 We went on the train ride...

Jace loved the idea of the train ride in theory, but once he was on it, he got super quiet and just was a little wary.  Sophie was quite curious and soaked everything in!  These two are just so funny to watch!  I love their little differences and similarities!  It's kinda fun to have twins.  (Did I just say that?!)  

Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Cox for giving us the Zoo pass for Christmas!!!  We can't wait to go MANY more times!  Thanks to Grammie for coming with us on our crazy last minute adventure!
