Last week, we decided to take Cale to Como Zoo....minus Keegyn! We had gone to the MN Zoo the week prior and Keegyn wasn't really digging the hot weather and the screaming, yowling monkeys. So needless to say, we didn't really see many animals and Cale was kinda bummed. Soooo....Jason took last Friday off and we headed off to Como....after dropping Keegyn off at daycare. (Cale thought that was pretty cool, too!)
This picture was just prior to dropping off our little pumpkin at daycare...poor Keegyn had no idea that we were getting ready to spend the whole entire day WITHOUT her!!! Cale, on the other hand, was well aware, and was plenty pleased by the idea of it!
JOE COOL!!
JOE COOL!! (he still can't quite figure out the correct way to wear his "shades"...as you can see, they are bending his ears forward in the most uncomfortable looking way!) But at least now he wears them on his eyes, not on the back of his head!
Cale and "Mr Tiger"
Cale, Daddy, and the giraffes! Mommy's favorite!!!! Cale was actually loving the giraffes as well, which surprised both Jason and I cuz we had been talking up the polar bears for like a week before we went and he barely gave them a second glance!
Time out for lunch!
Of course, we had to make a stop at Como Town! The actual zoo area was totally crowded, where even I was a bit annoyed with all the people...Jason, as a given, was annoyed as soon as we walked up the front doors and we realized that almost EVERY elementary school was there for their "end of school" fieldtrip! So, Como Town was our escape...we got there before the school age kids grew tired of the animals!
Cale LOVED this ride...a fire truck with REAL water to put out fires! He could have stayed on that thing all day if we let him!
He actually was quite talented (not trying to brag)! He was actually hitting the fire most of the time! We might have a real life fireman on our hands!
Enjoying his unicorn sucker
Showing off his prizes of the day...unicorn sucker (most of which was on his face) and the wax polar bear sculpture that Daddy just had to have! (a favorite thing from daddy's childhood memories)
FUN AT HOME WITH THE KIDDOS!!!
PICTURE PERFECT
One more day at home with the kiddos....gloomy day = pajama day = messy house!!!
Look at my house!!!! Sad to admit that this is what my house typically looks like for most of EVERY DAY!!!
I SURRENDER!!!!!!
