We've had such a wonderul Indian Summer and we've been taking advantage of every minute of it! It's not hard for us to spend an entire day at the MN zoo...even if we go a couple time a month. Cale can't get enough of it and Keegyn has just started realizing how fun it is to see all the animals. Last week, me and the kids headed over once again, and before I knew it, 4 hours had past...the kids were ready to continue on with the day...however, I, was ready to call it a day! We spent the better part of our first hour there at this fairly new play area....life size spider webs, nests and tree houses for the kids to climb on. It was actually one of the first times that Cale actually got to really explore since there weren't many people there....that's one nice thing about school being in session again!Just call him SPIDER MAN!!!
This was just a random little boy that Cale decided he was going to race....he looks like he's winning by a landslide, but he did have about 3 paces of a headstart too!!!
Cale now enjoys correcting me when I'm wrong....I kept telling him to go stand by the big spider....Cale kept telling me that "it's actually a mosquito, mom."
Whatever...it's just a big insect to me!
Not quite Yogi or Smokey, but it'll do!
Keegyn couldn't get enough of the bears...especially the one rubbing his butt up and down on this log!

......and, he's still going......
Cale was very proud of his shirt with the giraffe on it. He thought it was only fitting that he should were it to the zoo! He also picked out Keegyn's attire for the day (giraffes as well). Who would ever guess that he would even care!
I just look at this picture and it makes me laugh!!
.....and laugh.....
Funny story behind this. Cale and Keegyn are SOOOO different in every way. I have been trying to get Cale to pet the little goats for the past 3 years any time we go to the zoo. He is ALWAYS afraid of them. Won't even touch with a finger. So this time was no different...I'm trying to coax Cale into petting a goat, just a baby one, and I kinda forgot about Keegyn cuz I was so determined to finally have him do this. As I finally WON and got Cale to pet the baby goat, I turn to look at Keegyn as one of the other goats is nibbling on her little toes!!!! Thank god he didn't think it was his dinner time, she may have have a few less toes on her foot! To top it all off, Keegyn was giggling hysterically! If that had been Cale, he'd still be crying to this day!
