Zoo Trip With Our Friends

Hannah, Victoria and I met up with some friends at the zoo today. I like taking the kids to the zoo... it is lots of walking for Hannah which is a great way to burn of some of her endless energy!




A couple highlights (and low lights for some) from our day at the zoo....

* One of the male lions backed himself up to the fence and sprayed urine all over some poor man who happened to be standing in the wrong place at the wrong time. Kind of a highlight for me because it was funny but totally a low light for the poor guy who had to go home smelling like lion pee! (Unfortunately I did not have my camera ready so I did not get a picture... and I couldn't bring myself to ask the guy if I could take his picture after he got sprayed!)

* Some guy telling his kids to look at the little kangaroos only to have a know-it-all 3 year old named Hannah interrupt him and inform him that they were wallabies not kangaroos. Sheesh! What was the guy thinking not knowing his Australian outback mammals?!?! Hannah made sure to enlighten him. This was a highlight for Hannah who felt really smart and I'm sure a low light for the guy who had to be corrected by a 3 year old!

* A big low light of the day for little Tyler when he dropped his 'Bunny Bear' out of the train and the train ran 'Bunny Bear' over! Apparently 'Bunny Bear' needed a few stitches and a good wash but he is going to recover although he may never look quite the same again.



* And of course the biggest highlight of the day for me..... Hannah took a 3 hour nap when we got home! She woke up in such a good mood... I definitely like happy Hannah better than cranky Hannah :-)
