The Zoo

One of the things we did to celebrate Zoey's birthday was go to the Ft. Worth Zoo. We had such a great time. It had been rainy and cold during the week and it was still wet when we went but it turned out great. In the morning not all the animals were out because of the cold but we still saw a bunch and more were out by the afternoon. I was so happy with how well Zoey did. We got there at about 10am and didn't leave till 3:30. She did fall asleep about 2:30 and slept in the stroller. She had a blast walking around and seeing all the animals. She was scared of most of the animals if we got too close but really seemed to enjoy it. Here are some of my favorite pictures from that day (just a few, Clay took about 400 pics between the Zoo and her party!)


Zoey loved this area where the sea otter was. There were these can phones that if you pushed a button told you a story about different animals. The phones were heavy but she spent forever putting it in and out from the holder. She screamed when we had to move on.

She wasn't afraid of the fish! She liked to see them up close.

The white tigers were awesome. This one just paced back and forth in front of the window. Right after I took this picture and turned off the camera the tiger got up and his hind legs and scratched at the window right above Clay's head, it was totally cool!

I loved the intensity she watched things. She was so interested in most of it.

This is Zoey laughing at Daddy. They had a blast playing for awhile in the car seat while I ran into the store. She is so cute! It's crazy to think that her car seat is facing forward, that was a milestone for me, and she seems to like it.
