Day at the Zoo

Saturday we spent a day at the Zoo with Babunia. It was so much fun! Jack was very interested in everything, and for the most part thought that all the animals should 'moo'. He did learn how to 'who - who' at the owls, and then explored the playground with great interest, and speed, going from one caterpillar, to ladder, to turtle, etc.

We took the choo choo train around the park. Before we started it was very hard to keep Jack still, but once the train got going, Jack had so much fun!

We saw the 'ghost of the bayou' the albino alligator. He always looks like a big glow in the dark gummy bear to me, Jack's favorite part was the spinny wheel outside of the exhibit.

Next we saw the giraffes, and then the carousel. Jack was pretty tired by the time we got to the carousel, but once he saw it, he slithered out of his stroller and went running. After we got done with one ride, he wanted to do it again, it took a lot of manpower to drag him away:)

And finally the elephant exhibit. This huge beast was lots of fun to sit on!

After our super fun day, I thought Jack would be willing to go to sleep. But after 45 minutes of him running up and down on the bed, I put him in his crib. He usually cries in his crib until he is taken out, I can only stand about an hour of that, you'd think he'd fall asleep. Well, this time he lasted a full 3 minutes, when he climbed out! Well, climbed up and fell down. Poor guy was in such shock that he fell asleep fast after that, but now we can no longer use the crib since he's learned how to get out, and it's on it's lowest setting! I've tried putting him in for a few minutes since, but he goes straight up, and that's just to dangerous.
