Zoo trip 2010

(Still catching up from Chris's week off)

Last year on the hub's stay-cation we took Cupcake to the zoo for the very first time. She continues to LOVE animals so we figured we make another zoo trip. Only this time, we went to the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco. It was so much fun to go with her at 17 months. She loves making animal noises and we loved watching her look and look and then discover with joy the next animal.

Her favorite animal both in books and at the zoo right now is the monkey. They had a really neat monkey area with some play elements involved. Check out the joy on cupcake's face:

We also saw all the usual suspects: lions, tigers, bears, rhinos, giraffes, birds, reptiles, mammals, etc. It was pretty hot but we barely noticed until the end as we really were enjoying our family day at the zoo.

Cute. Love the picture of her pressed up on the glass. My favorite was always the orangutans too ;)

And you didn't take any pictures on campus? Did you drive around?

Was this zoo better than the Austin Zoo??

Oh......how precious. I loved the little kiddie park pictures especially. She looked so old driving the boat (with Chris crunched in too.) And...what about the airplane!!! Too cute! And she just loved it. Isn't it fun to see their excitement? Plus I loved the picture of Karen in her little boat? So glad you got some family time!
