A lasting impression

Toddler Wily has, of late, been pretending to feed a giraffe (specifically, the Duplo Lego Giraffe) and tells the story of feeding a tall giraffe that kissed her hand.



We'll add that to the priceless memory collection!

Yet another shocking development

We went to the zoo. A new zoo! Jeneric commandeered the camera and presents the following in-depth photojournalism. We begin with these rare photos of the only biger (tigalo? tigon? bufer?) known to exist.

We don't know if the camels are double agents, but they do appear suspicious.

Eagles, related as they are to pigeons, are definitely plotting in secrecy.

And the leaves sitting on the netting? Wire taps.

Zoo... again

Wow, a quick search of our blog reveals that we go to the zoo quite a lot. How unusual for a family with 2 toddlers!

Our latest zoo folleys:

Before finally touching the goat herself.

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo

How about you, you, you? We went to our local zoo over the weekend (free in the winter!).

Waaay in the background, you can see a Tamarin that had Toddler Wily squealing for ages.

Jeneric spent a good portion of time with her hands over her ears because many of the animals were too loud.

Loud peacocks...

Loud lions...

Loud kids...

Zoo days

Each summer, our local zoo has 2 days that are completely free - admission and food! Eric braved the crowds with 2 excited girls:
