Thursdays can be pretty long here with no scheduled activities/school so this morning we decided to go to the Dallas Zoo. We hit Subway on the way to the zoo so we could bring our lunch.
Luke has entered the "not wanting to ride in the stroller because I am so big" phase so it took us a good 4.5 hours to do the whole zoo but the boys had a great time. They got to ride the monorail and the carousel. They have a new exhibit called Ghosts of the Bayou in the Reptile Building. They have albino/white gators. It was really cool and there was a lot for the boys to see.
Luke's favorite part of the day was as usual lunch...but his favorite animal was the elephant and we had to stop for a good 10 minutes to watch her. Evan said his favorite today were the turtles. I am not sure if he meant the real ones or the bronzed turtle statues.
We petted bunnies and guinea pigs which is always mommy's favorite part. Nothing like dirty animals that hundreds of people have touched. But I overcome my ickiness for the sake of developing more normal children!LOL
Luke was asleep before we hit the parking lot exit so the trip must have been a success. Mommy was very tired and could have taken a nap herself, but as usual no such luck...Evan was ready for crafting when we got home and put Luke down for a nap!;)
