This week was filled with fun outings for the kids, and they did great!!! The day before this Karyl went to Disneyland with Greg's family and she was ready and willing to spend the day at the zoo!! She LOVED seeing all the animals, but I think her favorite part was finding the face painter...she loves getting her face painted!!
Then Freddie saw Karyl and of course wanted to do the same thing...I was skeptical and didn't think he'd sit there, but he did and let the lady draw a dolphin on his face!! It looked so stinking cute, especially with his blue eyes. He sat perfectly still and let her draw the whole thing!!
Then, after the face painting we had gone to collect our stroller (we had just finished the bus ride around the zoo) and we saw this feathered friend wandering. The kids thought it was the coolest thing EVER. After a few minutes, the peacock fanned its tail and we got to see that in all it's glory. The kids LOVED it!!
Did you know that you have to wait in line to see the Pandas?? Well, it's true...so while in line Karyl and Daddy took advantage of the surroundings and got a little silly in the bamboo!!
The kids had a blast, and surprisingly I made it through the whole day without passing out or having to slow down. That's not to say I wasn't limping by the time we walked to the car...being 8 months pregnant doesn't exactly make roaming around the zoo an easy task, but I was really proud of myself that I did it and I didn't hold anyone back!! Of course that night I couldn't sleep in bed I was so sore, but it was gone the next day and we have some great memories from the zoo with the kids and family!!! Thanks again to Greg's family for agreeing to share this experience with the kids....they loved it!!
