Zoo Trip!!!

We made a trip to the Blank Park Zoo-along with everyone else in Des Moines. It was busy but beautiful! We enjoyed walking around and we are pumped to be Zoo and Science Center of Iowa members! We got our season pass today and can't wait to make lots of trips to the Science Center this Winter and to the Zoo next Spring and Summer!
Finnean LOVED the fishes! He just looked and looked as the swam by!

Dad and Finnean checking out the giraffes. Finnean loved watching them and "talked" to them a lot! Finnean also loved talking to the goats. He just squealed and babbled at them! Michael would not feed them and I was not about to touch the dirty animals. So next year I guess I will have to suck it up and let Finnean touch them...YUCK!

So intense!

Finnean got a monkey from the gift shop. Which he thinks it is hilarious!
What a big smile!

Snuggling the monkey before we left the Zoo!!

We still don't have a name for the monkey...any suggestions?

My favorite quote of the day..."I can see how kids get spoiled." That was after we got Finnean got a monkey and we got ice cream treats. You can't go to the Zoo without a snack! We can't wait for next year when Finnean is running all over the Zoo. We had a great day at the Blank Park Zoo!
