RAD Zoo with a Friend

 Henry had a playdate with his friend Ava at the RAD Zoo about a week and a half ago. While we were there we got to see a baby tortoise hatch out of an egg, so cool!

MN Zoo Trip

 Our first ride on the tram was pretty neat, even if we did have to wait a long time to go on the ride. It moves a lot slower than you would expect.

 I am playing catch-up today on the kids blogs.....the computer I had been uploading all my pictures on was being funky (still is, but it's working ok right now) so I couldn't get at them. So, I am way behind on pictures for stuff so now you get a bunch to look at.

Anyways, these are pictures from our family trip to the MN Zoo on Presidents' Day.

Henry was most excited to see the sharks and was talking about it the whole morning until we got there to see them.

Trip to the MN Zoo

 I don't remember what animal is in this exhibit, but his friend thought it smelled and plugged his nose and said Ewwww!, so Henry had to do it too!

 Posing on some rocks. Cheese! Wish I could get him to look at the camera.

Zollman Zoo

My friend Carrie & I took our youngest kids to Zollman Zoo in Oxbow park today while the oldest to were at Vacation Bible School. It was hot & sticky, but the kids really enjoyed getting to see the animals and not competing with an older sibling for mom's attention.

RADZoo Visit

I took the kids to the RadZoo this morning and this afternoon. These are pictures from this morning. We went back in the afternoon to see them feed the animals. We had seen them feed some of the smaller animals and have been able to feed tortoises & turtles ourselves (which we got to do again today), but we had never seen them feed the really big snakes & the 12 ft. alligator. It was pretty cool.

RADZoo

Henry loves going here. It's funny to watch him as the snakes slither toward the glass by him and see him try to pinch the glass to get them. Very cute. We will definitly get our money's worth from this family membership.

Como Zoo

We went on a trip to Como Zoo with ECFE. Since it was a lot of sister's friends and Henry was tired, it was more about her and he was along for the ride, but I did snap a couple pictures of him.

49 Weeks

The top is his 49 weeks photo that I took at Como Zoo today. The bottom is a close-up picture of his handprint spider. Isn't it cute?!?! Actually, I was testing out my new camera & so far I LOVE IT!
