Yesterday I ventured out with ALL the kidlings to the zoo. We packed a lunch and off we went. The kids had a blast, and I actually enjoyed myself. The weather was beautiful...about 70! We all came home with pink arms...it felt great to be out. We saw all kinds of fun animals. Hayden came home and told Aaron, "me need otter for my birthday." While at the zoo, every animal we saw he said he wanted it for his birthday. We have a few months until his birthday, so hopefully he will forget.
Hayden's favorite animals to see were the otters, the giraffe, the zebra's, the gorillas, the pooping elephant...pretty much everything.
I actually thought he would be afraid, because if a cat or dog comes close to him he screams and runs.
We had fun feeding these rainbow birds. The ended up crawling up my arm and pooping on me...see if I feed them again!
Caite liked the rain forest and the cool blue bird.
Isaac thought the bear was pretty cool because it came right up to them.
I liked the Bald Eagles, they were in an open exhibit because the have wing damage and can't fly.They were catching some shade in the bushes. I got a cool shot.
Halle was good in the stroller for the first 20 minutes. Then she started to scream. Fortunately I expected that so a brought her snuggli also. Once she was attached to me she was fine.
We had such a good time that I think we will get an annual pass. It will pay for itself in just three trips. That's worth
it.

I love blogs!!! Your kids are adorable and so fun to hear about your zoo visit. I am so excited for spring and to get to go to the zoo in Indianapolis - hopefully it will be as great as yours!
ozfbyjI think we are going to get a pass too! We'll have to plan some trips together! Look's like you guys had a blast, and how nice to get out of the house!
Hello Amy! I loved your Christmas card and I am happy you are settled down in Arkansas for a while. That looks like a nasty boo boo on Hayden's head! Your kids are adorable and so big-especially Isaac. You can stop by our blog as well to see what we are up to. How cute your parents are on their mission!
Love,
Jen
I love your blog! It was so fun seeing pictures of your family. It has been some time since we have seen you. Isaac especially is really growing up. He seems very tall. I'm glad that we can keep in touch through blogging. Sounds like you are enjoying Arkansas!
Yeah, I'm so excited about this! I can't wait to be able to keep up with you this way. It might seem impersonal...but it's just the opposite! Yahoo!
I loved catching up with your family! It seems like just yesterday, but then again longer than that...
Jen Spackman just had their baby girl this past Tuesday, Lillian Kay. She was due April 5th and weighed 6lbs something. I keep waiting for pictures...
I can tell you are busy and think if you are Enrichment Leader for the 4th time that is because you MUST have it down girl :)
I have you added on my blog and look forward to checking in with you all... your kids are truly darling! Happy Easter to you all~
We miss your family! They are really growing and I was so happy to hear that you had another girl! Two of each! I've had people tell me that is the million-dollar family.
So happy for you and glad to hear you love Arkansas. I've added your blog link to mine, so it will be fun to keep in touch! Did you get the invite to see ours??
Take care.
Looks like you guys had fun at the zoo. I have to love that bald eagle photo. I can just imagine them having some sort of serious talk, like with their brows furrowed and such...ha ha!
