Do not feed the animals.

The last part of our Seattle trip a few weeks ago took us to the Woodland Park Zoo.

We were just CERTAIN that we would be the only genius' to think of going to one of the nations best zoos, on a Saturday, on the most beautiful day of the year thus far.

No, everyone and their uncles uncle were there.

Everyone and their best friends uncles uncle.

I'm pretty sure even E.T. himself was there.

I know, cool right?

anyway...

Livie REALLY enjoyed the hands-on petting zoo portion of the zoo.

Crap. If I would have known that, I would have saved the $15 admission fee for each of us and bussed her off to the nearest farm.

Whatever, we are making memories, people. Memories.




In this picture, Liv just couldn't figure for the life of her how in the world Daddy managed to get on the other side of the glass and lay there like that. He never ceases to amaze us. I know, we are lucky, lucky girls...


Here we are discussing the finer points of Elephant poop. I think the conclusion we came to was that it stinks. Really really bad.


These two are definitely a rare breed....


But, they are pretty precious, so I suppose I'll keep them.


And now I leave you with this lesson my dear readers:
If you are pregnant, and it's 90-some degrees outside, DON'T go to the zoo and walk for what seems like miles upon miles of uneven terrain.
Your ankles WILL in fact swell to the size of, well, let's just say you start resembling the michelan man, REAL quick...
