We love the Zoo!

More of Marshall getting to eat some of his birthday cake. He is obviously excited about it!

We just love to go to the Zoo! We go as frequently as we can. Usually every few weeks. Whether it is cold out or not, the Zoo is perfect as we can hang out in Africa or the Rain forest.

We love the new penguin exhibit.  We could spend so much time in there just sitting and watching.  Well we could spend so much time in every place but it feels like you can be so close to the penguins, and they are always active and exciting.  One of the things that I love about us going to the Zoo is that we don't tire quickly of each animal, possible to the dismay of people that come with us.  But we can stay and watch every animal that we see for quite a while.  It really feels like we get to see more of the interesting things that they do when we take our time.  We also can go and see 2 or 3 exhibits and then go home, as we can see more another day.  It is so great. 

Dawsyn is enjoying some time with the gorillas.  Sometimes they come right up to the glass and sit right in front of the kids, looking straight at them.  It is so great.  The gorillas are definitely one of my favorites!  They are such amazing animals!

My darling girls posing in the kangaroo pouch.  They are just growing up so much.  It really hits me frequently of how big they are getting.  It is shocking.  They are just such amazing personalities!  I love to get to watch them and help them grow up.  To know them best and to love them best.  These are the moments that make all of the hard ones worth it!
