Baby!! Trip to the zoo

Today was THE perfect fall day! The kids and I, Melis and her kids, and mom went to the zoo. The weather was so amazing. The boys loved the animals-especially their poop. Must be the age...will they ever grow out of thinking bodily functions are hilarious?

Anyway- my favorite part was the baby elephant! It was so TINY! I had to restrain myself from jumping over the fence and picking it up. It's seriously the most adorable baby animal I have ever seen.
See-It is SO small! You want to pick it up, too, huh!

Its' little trunk was so CUTE, ooh! And it's floppy ears...You all MUST see it!

Melis-So glad she and my mom were there. Scary to think of venturing to the zoo alone with my kiddos!


Us in front of the giraffe...cute...not EVEN in the same cuteness scale as the elephant.


Grandma Becky and Maddux! She is always prepared with gummy worms and treats. Thanks for a fun day, mom!

Luke eating a ridiculously huge popscicle! I think he'll be stained green for the next week.


Maddux and his root beer ice cream! He wanted the huge popscicle, but he has "being sticky" issues. I didn't want him to tell the popcicle where to go, how to get there...!


Cute boys!

Megan took her boys to the zoo and she said the baby animals were the best. I need to take my girls before it gets too cold, they would love it. As for the poop issue--when we went last year for Makell's birthday, the gorilla had a handful of its own poop & was eating it. All the kids were laughing and I was gagging over in the corner. It was disgusting!
