We had a lot of fun at the zoo! It is funny because I remember the first time I went to the North Carolina Zoo I was disappointed because the habitats were so big you couldn't always see the animals and you had to walk for hours and hours to see everything. Well we went to the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle and I left thinking about how much I love the NC Zoo and how much better it is for the animals to have such a large area to roam. That being said I have always loved the zoo (big or small)- especially the gorillas- while everyone went to lunch I stayed behind and watched the gorillas eat and play for like 30 minutes. They have a little 2.5 year old baby and wowsers she is cute. I even got to watch her nurse- so stinkin sweet.

| I am pretty sure this is what we looked like most of the day |
 |
| seriously I have the cuteness kids in my family! |
 |
| Allias and Lil |
 |
| kind of sad really |
 |
 |
| I threw this one in just for proof that Tyler was at the zoo with us- he and Allias are so different when it comes to cameras and having their pictures taken- Allias throws himself in front of the camera- even asks to have his picture taken in certain poses and Tyler pretty much ignores it- even if you are asking him to let you take his picture! |
  |
| whoaa cuteness! |
 |
| you know the animals are too close when you can get this kind of action shot! |
 |
| I adore this picture- these guys would drag around burlap sacks and cardboard boxes wherever they went. Then they would lay outside and use the boxes or sacks as sunshades. |
 |
| why are we soooo precious? |
 |
| nasty- glad I was on stroller duty while they were looking at the bugs! I am just wondering what the heck are they eating? |
 |
| love love this girl and those green eyes! |
 |
| Owen adored the otters! I have the cutest video of him cracking up at them but I can't get it to upload. |
 |
| me watching the gorillas |
 |
| This big daddy kept watching up above for the keeper to come with his food- he would glance up like every ten seconds. The gorillas are kind of nasty in the way that they puke up their food and re-eat it like a hundred times. I wonder if they do that in the wild! |
 |
| Penguins are wayyy too cute- I want one! Owen does too. |
