We're Going to the Zoo, Zoo, Zoo...

 Nana and Granddad are in town!!!  But if that weren't fun enough, we also went to the BIG zoo (aka Brookfield) with them. 

In preparation, Brooks got a little exposure to a certain sea creature...

...and he made sure that octopus knew who the boss was.

Noelle wasn't sure if the zoo would allow her enough opportunities to get grimy, so she started the day by licking our window crayon-ed window.

Finally, though, we got to the main event!


The dolphins, I'm pretty sure, were the highlight of the day.  


We even got to see the show!

Brooks and I really enjoyed it. :)

But as much as I liked the show, it made my heart melt when Noelle reached over and held her little brother's hand.

 Granddad and the girls

Can you waddle like a penguin?
Riley and Noelle can.

We made sure to experience the wildlife at home, too. 


It was an absolutely wonderful day.  Three kiddos at the zoo, and the only crying that occurred was when Brooks was hungry, and that only lasted about three minutes.  Now we just have to convince Nana and Granddad to move back here...
