Kevin took the day off and we took Lauren to the zoo. It was her 3rd time going but really her first time enjoying all the animals. Elephants were by far her favorite but monkeys were a close second! Here she is watching the bears sleeping and she was saying, "Shh, Bears nigh night".
For some reason this hippo statue scared her, the kid who isn't scared of anything is scared of a statue- go figure!
I'm not one of those people who usually takes animal shots but I couldn't resist this peacock, it was quite a sight!
Uhh... out of order again! This was about 2 minutes after getting in the car- the zoo tired her out!
Looking at the bunnies.
Climbing the fence to the goats... I guess she wanted to be like them:)
Lauren kept wanting to have her hands in her pockets. We'd say, can you hold our hands please and she'd say, "No, hands in pockets".
We forgot our stroller so we rented this wagon. It was a hit! She loved riding in it and it was fun because we could easily get her out. She also loved her monkey cup she got filled with apple juice. For some reason one of the things I remember the most about going to the zoo when I was little was getting these cups so I had to get one for her!

Looks like you had a great day! Wish we could have joined you, but we were stuck here in a combo of rain and snow and sunshine. This weather is crazy! Lauren's hair looks cute. Looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks. Love, Oma
I love that picture of her standing with her hands in her pocket. I don't remember EVER getting a monkey cup at the zoo. Apparently I was given the short end of that stick :-)
Lis, I got the short end as well. But that's the first thing Ryan talked about when he looked at these pictures. Maybe this was more of a San Diego kid zoo thing since that's where they grew up. I love that she was shy around all the animals.
Makes me want to go to the zoo!! What a fun day! Sorry so lame on the timing of the posts lately! Even had to go back a month to comment!
