Off to the zoo we went smelly clothes and all. The weather was a little rainy and cold but not unbearable. There weren't too many people at the zoo so we were able to get right up front to see all the animals. We saw the monkeys, gorillas, birds, small reptiles, and elephants.

One of Cooper's favorite things was the big water ball at the front entrance. He loved that it was a big ball with water all over it. He kept trying to push it and make it roll.

Of course he had to push his whole face up to the glass while looking at the animals. I was actually surprised and thankful that he didn't lick the glass like he licks the windows at home.

As we were walking around Cooper wanted to pull and push the stroller around, another one of his favorite things to do.

One of my favorite animals was the elephants. I loved seeing baby Zuri . So cute! Cooper even made the elephant sound when we saw them (aka, spitting).
While visiting the elephant exhibit Cooper found some stairs. I thought we were going to be there all day. Luckily after a few trips up and down he was willing to go look at other animals.

This was one of the few times he let me hold him. The other times he wanted daddy to walk him around.
My boys. Aren't they cute!

Cooper wasn't quite sure what to think of the carousal. Paul said he seemed a little scared and kept trying to get down . But when the ride was over he wanted to ride again.

One of the last things we did before we left was ride the train, or choo choo as Cooper calls it. He enjoyed the bumpy ride.


On the train. Cooper was so cute sitting all by himself between mommy and daddy. However, it didn't last long.
We didn't get to see all the animals so we will have to go back again soon. What a fun adventurous day at the zoo!
