Naibi Zoo

oh, today has been so much fun!  i slept til 10 & then went down to mom's.  we stopped at mickey d's for a happy meal to tide us over and headed to the zoo.  the newly paved parking lot is superb!  no more gravelly mess.  first off we went to see the monkeys, but then we heard the train and leyton immediately no longer cared about the monkeys.  lol  so, we rode the train around the zoo & saw some of the animals out.  it was just starting to get hot (we didn't get to the zoo til 12:30) and some were making their way into their shelters. 

we walked around for two hours, saw the sights, said hi to the animals, and bye when we left. 

we ate popcorn and drank water and soda, went potty, played in the spritzer fans.

the giraffes were licking something off the drain pipes & shelter doors.  no idea what!  but they were GORGEOUS and kind enough to pose for some pictures!  : ) 

and i have to include this flower picture, just because it is SO gorgeous!  : ) 

we left the zoo about 2:40 or so, and mom & leyton dropped me off so i could take a nap while they went to get anthony from a friend's & run some errands.  they're going to pick me back up in a bit & we'll go to dinner.  not sure where, but mom hinted there'd be a steakhouse involved!  : ) 
*******************************

well, no steakhouse.  :(  but we went to long john silvers/a&w and it was tastey!  leyton loved the bear at the front.  soooo cute!  i tried to get anthony to take a picture w/ the bear, but he wasn't having it. 

shortly after this, mom explained to anthony that he shouldn't text at the table.  lol

when we got back to the house, we saw this guy:

too cute!  : )  leyton played in my car for a little bit, then i had to head home.  amy was on her way in as i was on my way out, so i didn't get to do more than say hi! 

so, that was my wonderfully EXHAUSTING saturday!  praise the Lord for this blessing!!!  : ) 

ttfn.
