Zoo Trip in the Spring

We got a family membership to the Zoo this year and went for the first time in the spring.  And awesome enough, Wesley got to go with us.  We've gone several times since, well me and the kids and once more with Wesley but I don't think we ever remembered to bring the camera again.  :)

The last few times that we have went Novalee and Jared have wanted to spend all their savings at the Zoo store or on other things at the Zoo.  We are slowly collecting a lot of zoo memorabilia.  

 They are so cute!  

 Proof that Dad was there.  :)  (This must have been before we got our double stroller.)

 One of Jared's most favorite things to do at the Zoo is to take pictures of the animals.  I think he has been bummed the last few times that I've forgotten to bring the camera.  We have A LOT of animal pictures on my dumb phone AND on our SD card.  I think it is really neat he likes to take pictures so much.  He wants to be on the photography club at his school.  I'm not even a 100% sure if they have one but he said the 3rd and 4th graders do it, so I guess it just might happen this year.

 Our first visit to see the elephants since Lilly was born.  She was born on Jared's birthday.

 There she is.  She is was so cute.  I thought she would grow so fast but since we've come back the last few times she doesn't look that much bigger...

 Do you think Jared is suggesting the lions breath is stinky?

I really like the snakes at the zoo.  I think this is the python.  I want to make it sometime in time for feeding time.  I think it would be interesting to see.
