Zoo Trip!

This past Wednesday Ross and I took Nigel to the Hogle Zoo. Leslie came along with us. It was a whole lot of fun. We saw a bird show and lots of fun animals. Here's a bunch of pictures from the trip! Sorry there's so many, but there kind of has to be since there is so much to look at at the zoo!

There's the baby elephant in the front and an adult in the back.

Nigel was a little concerned with this gorilla. 

Leslie, Nigel, and I by the bronze gorilla.

Ross and Nigel were alone, not for even 5 minutes, and Nigel got a lovely lip injury.

Nigel loves being on his dad's shoulders! 

Rhinoceros having some lunch.

Hey, that baby monkey was born on Leslie's birthday!

Me, Ross, and Nigel with the bronze rhino.

Nigel as not very happy to be put in this eagle nest.

Checking out the otters.

Nigel loved to see the seals and sea lions swimming back and forth.

Woah! Sea lion!

Nigel just ran back and forth down in this little cove squealing with joy. I guess he was just really happy to be out of the stroller for a good long while.

Grizzly bear fight! 

Leslie with the silver polar bear.

Baby giraffe!

I got this amazing picture of a turtle. Happy little fellow.

Bats, my favorite flying mammal. Leslie rolled her eyes when I said that.

Porcupines!

Having a little break and eating granola bars.

Leslie is so cool.

"Hey, Leslie, kiss that gorilla!" What a good sister.

Elephant getting some treats.

Nice picture, Ross! 

Nigel thought this water ball thing was pretty fascinating.

Sexy as a seal.

Nigel and Ross! It was so cool to see the polar bear swimming. She was just going back and forth over and over and over again.

Watching the sea lion play.

Hello, seals!

Nigel made a little, brass, otter friend!

River otters! So cute.

Meditating in the eagle's nest.

Such a fun day we had! Nigel was exhausted. Which was understandable as he decided not to take a nap during the day. There's was too much going on, I guess.
