I took the kids to the zoo yesterday - what a beautiful day it was! (And we really needed to get out.) Conner was excited because the giraffes were back - they've been working on new area for them so we haven't seen giraffes for about a year. It was a neat place; they have it set up with a walkway ten feet or so off the ground so you can see the giraffes at eye-level.
The picture on the right is a giraffe approaching someone holding out a tree branch... but then it got spooked and ran away. I think it's going to take some time for them to get used to the crowds!

Conner took a picture of me and Audrey by the elephants. She was much more engaged on this trip than she was on the last one - she kept pointing at different animals and grunting. I stood her by the glass by the penguin exhibit and she didn't want to leave!

The best part of the day was that Conner actually took a nap when we got home. He hadn't taken one for the previous 2 days and was a total grump by dinner time. Both nights he was in bed (and asleep) by 7:00!
