On Wednesday I decided, along with a few friends, to take the my kids and Salote (a cute girl I get to watch) to the Zoo. I usually take my kids once a week to the zoo when it starts to warm up. So this was our first time since last fall. It was free Zoo day and there were a lot of people there. It was quite the trip.
Eston loved the animals and would make all the sounds for me whenever he saw the correlating animal. His eyes just lit up. It was so fun to see his reaction this time, since he is old enough to start taking it all in. I have discovered that a 3 year old, a 2 year old, and a 1 year old make for an interesting combination. Salote (3) wanted to be with all her friends and constantly was running back and forth between me and the rest of the group that was strung out. She is a good girl and would have been fine if I wasn't trying to keep my eye also on our little tour guide, Sammie (2), who kept straggling and trying to direct everyone. According to Sammie there are GORILLA's all over the zoo and they come right after the animal we are currently looking at. Eston (1) was pretty good until he decided that he wanted to be like all the other kids and walk. That was were my own personal zoo came into play. I even got my first official sunburn of the year. (It's not that hard for me to get sunburned.)
Needless to say that we made it through the event and now I know what to do next time.
