Fun at the Zoo

Last week S and I went to the Columbia zoo with my sister and a friend.  We had a great time, but S wasn't quite as into the animals as I thought she would be.  I think she had the most fun playing on the zoo playground:)  She has definitely entered the terrible two's lately with an attitude that just makes me shutter!  So when we got to the zoo she decided she did not want to ride in her stroller because she has to be "miss independent" so obviously there was a melt down.  The first fifteen minutes of animals were not exactly appreciated by miss S so I didn't get a ton of pictures of her looking at animals, mostly because she was screaming, and that does not make for an attractive picture!

It looks like she is crying in this picture because she was:)  But I am all for documenting real life, not just the "good stuff", because I know I will look back and miss those tantrums some day!

Yes, I gave in and let her walk:( She won, I lost, but look how happy she is now:)  Just kidding, but not really, sometimes I just give in so that I feel like I didn't just spend my money for nothing, or if there isn't a bathroom near by:)

My adorable nephew Landon, can you believe those eyes!!

Kids are so funny, I think they actually enjoyed all the "other stuff" at the zoo more than the actual animals. I think that will probably change when they get a little older.  Life is still pretty simple for them right now which I really do like, it doesn't take much to entertain them.
