Yet Another Zoo!

Yes, we added one more zoo to the list for this summer. Lexi, Jill and I met up with the McClure family (except Jarrick who was working) for a wonderful trip to the Columbus Zoo. Anita, Jack, and Anna joined us for over 4 hours of seeing almost every animal and even squeezing in carousel and train rides. We met up with them at their house right at 10 am. Jill downed a bottle and then we were off to the zoo. Lexi and Anna clicked very quickly and wanted to hold hands right off the bat - How Adorable! All the kids were troopers. Not too much whining and they actually ate their lunches (we packed our lunch). Lexi even got to see her favorite animal - the bears! Jill was extremely good and didn't cry at all. She happily rode in her stroller almost the entire time! I did take her out to ride the train and also to feed her at the aquarium while the older kids were touching starfish in the "touch tank". We also got to see manatees and even the new baby elephant (sorry, no pictures of him). Lexi was only upset when we had to leave the zoo and she found out we were NOT going back to Anna's house to play... she still gave Anna and Anita big hugs. Maybe we can play next time! Thanks so much to the McClures for a wonderful day at the zoo and we hope to come back and play real soon!
