A day at the zoo!

I recently found out that the zoo was free for everyone last Wednesday and thought it would be fun to go. It was very last minute on my part and I didn't want to go alone, so I asked around to see if anyone wanted to join my crazy last minute idea and my friend down the street that sometimes watches Braxton in the mornings said she would come with me. She has two kids of her own and than she watches two other kids every Monday-Friday while their parents work. We had quite the car load, but lucky for us we were able to all go because of our new van.

We went right after nap time on Wednesday. And let me tell ya, the zoo was packed. My friend said she's never seen it that busy before. I didn't think it was too bad, we still saw everything there even with the loads of people. Thanx Kristina for coming to the zoo with me, it was way fun!

Her kiddos are the two on the left, the two that she watches are the two on the right.

The water where the sea lions swim.

Loved it, Braxton got to see this animal up close. I have know clue as to what kind of animal it is, haha.
That animal never moved, it just sat there frozen, it could pass as a stuffed animal ;)

 We got to see the tiger up really close too, very cool. Was the kids favorite part I think.

Kristina passing out some animal crackers, thank heavens we brought snacks.
It helped with keeping them in the wagon between the different animals.
 I had my stroller for Braxton.
