On Friday we were lucky enough to be able to take advantage of the awesome weather by heading up to Madison Zoo. We could not have asked for a nicer day although we did think it was maybe a bit too hot but hey we'll take hot over cold any day. We've talked about taking Elle to a zoo for a little while becuase of her love of animals but now we were finally able to do it. If you haven't been to the Madison Zoo you should definitely go check it out. It's not a huge zoo but it does have some cool animals and best of all it's FREE!
Robby had been asking on the way to the zoo if we were going to get to see any bears and sure enough it was the first animal we saw that day!
It was such a beautiful day and Elle was great through the whole thing no crying or whining woohoo!
The lions were one of our favorite animals we saw that day unfortunately they didn't do much though they were just enjoying laying in the sun.
I'm not exactly sure what this next animal is....monkey, chimp or gorilla who knows I wasn't paying attention to what the signs said. Anyway he was very cute and he just sat there looking at us and this one was sucking on his toe, very very cute.
When we were all done checking out the animals we sat down and had a quick photo shoot.
Elle didn't spend much time in her stroller that day but I had to include a picture of her in it cause boy oh boy do we LOVE this stroller!!! Everyone who has a baby or toddler needs to invest in a BOB Stroller!!
On our way out Elle got to stop in the gift shop and pick out something. Elle picked out the lion right away we're guessing because of it's fun hair. We named him Larry the Lion...real original I know. Larry and Elle got to ride together on the way back to the car.
After a long day Elle and Larry got to snuggle on the way home....I couldn't believe she actually slept the whole way back. You can't see it in the pic but Elle held onto Larry's leg while she was sleeping.
We had such an awesome day together as a family we were so lucky to be able to spend the day together at the Zoo hopefully we will have many more fun filled days this summer.
