We're Goin' to the Zoo!!!

Tuesday was all about family fun! We started off w/lunch at McD's and then head to the zoo! We started off in the rain forest area...here are Kaden and Josh on the rope bridge checking out the waterfall. Cam admiring the waterfall from his stroller.
Watching the Turtles
Ewwww!!!! Checking out the snake.
Next we headed to the "aquarium" area. I think Kade was trying to catch the bird that had wandered in. :)
Starfish!!!
Cam loooooved all the fish!
He took off running when he saw this aquarium! I think he could've watched the fish all day!
We couldn't believe how close this Emu walked to us! I've never seen them come this close!
Going on a train ride!
Kade milking the cow. :)
Feeding the MANY fish.
Cam fed some fish and the swans through the fence.
Our zoo is fairly small, but they do have one heck of a playground!
Here they are checking to see if they're as tall as a giraffe. LOL
One of the slides--this is so cute!

Kaden is SO determined to do the monkey bars. He isn't very good yet, but he is determined to keep trying! :)
Playing a little music...go figure. LOL
Getting eaten by a hippo. :)
On to two of my favorite animals--sea lions and penguins!!! Kaden tried to convince me it'd be OK if we hopped in the water with them. It WAS pretty hot out. LOL

Snack Time
Visiting the boys' real family...the monkeys, of course. :)
Up next for Tuesday's Family Fun Day: Ankeny's All-City Play Day. More pics to come!!!
