Morning at the Zoo

We started off the long weekend with a trip to the zoo with the Carlson's. Jennifer's sister, Kim and her fiance, Greg, were visiting so they joined us as well. We even packed a lunch - this was one of our longest trips to the zoo yet. We usually hang around for about an hour but we stuck around 2 1/2 this time. The girls had a blast playing with their friends, Ben and Jack, and love seeing all the animals. Fun morning!

GG got her very own dino juice and there was no getting it away from her.

Baby Ben has quite a few admirers in the Meyer clan. He's getting so big. I'm not sure Annabelle can keep calling him Baby Ben when he's taller than her - but I bet she'll try!Annabelle and Jack pulled Ben's shade down over her face and all 3 were belly laughing over the endless game of peak-a-boo. GG was thrilled that Annabelle was antagonizing someone else for a change and she could have a break!

Checking out the monkeys

Sweet little GG is walking now and doesn't want to be stuck in the wagon anymore. She wants to run with the big kids. Unfortunately it would take hours to get through the zoo with her tiny little steps, so she was happy with the compromise to get out of the wagon and hitch a ride with her daddy.
