Rowan's 1st zoo trip

We headed to the Memphis Zoo recently for Rowan's first visit. She really wanted to see all of Peyton and Grace's family and the only time the monkey's are out is in the morning before it gets hot.

So we decided to tell the girls we were going to a store that morning. Daddy put some Toy Story 2 on in the truck for their viewing pleasure. Once we arrived, Grace was the first to realize we weren't at the store... we were at the Zoo (aka home). Peyton quickly caught on and squeals ensued.

Rowan had on her hat and was sitting up like a big girl in the stroller.

She was THRILLED to be at the Zoo, can't you tell?

Actually, here is some proof she really did have a good time.

The girls needed some hats as well so Daddy stopped by the gift shop...

... and two red hats later we were ready to!

Here's Peyton and Grace checking out the flamingo's.



Daddy and the girls leading the way to Teton Trek.



By the time we made it to the Teton Trek, Rowan had had enough.

My secret for a baby that sleeps the night... check out those thighs!
She could sleep for a week if she wanted to!


Also at Teton Trek, one of the sweetest moments to date of the big girls.

Grace put her arm around Peyton and they stood like that for a minute or two.
I think/hope they realize how lucky they are to have one another.

On our way out we stopped by the monkeys where Mommy actually got in front of the camera for a change.


All in all, a great morning at the Zoo and an even better time hanging out as a family of five!
