The Zoo, Big Boy Shoes, And A Light Up Duck

We went up to the zoo this morning to see the animals before it got to hot. We might have been a little to late for the river otter. He was asleep in his den. Anna was glad that she could climb up the ladder to peek in on him.



Anna always likes to look for Osbert (My Penguin Osbert by Elizabeth Cody Kimmel) in the penguin house. Due to the heat and extra the horrible penguin house smell, she settled for a quick hug of the "Osbert" statue.



Somehow, the little tiny barn owl was not effected by the heat. He was up and flying around his enclosure.



Sam spent the zoo trip in the stroller eating and looking around for the train. He was very excited about the train, lots of screeches and points when it went by. He also was probably thinking about how great his new big boy shoes with extra room for his toes were going to feel on his feet.



After a long hot day, nothing is better then a cool bath in the sink with a light up duck.
