Let's Go To The Zoo

The weather is finally getting better so what better to do then head out to the Jacksonville Zoo. We took Olivia for the first time last month and she loved seeing all the animals, today was no exception. We decided not to go alone we met up with Kelly and Grady so mommy and Olivia would have a friend. The kids had a great time. The main reason for the trip was a sneak peak at the new penguin exhibit, Olivia thought it was cool-pictures below..
Our first stop ofthe day was the sting rays. Olivia leaned right over the wall and splashed and tried to play with them. She really liked it, we'll definately have to stop here next time we go. Kelly had to get in there too and play with the sting rays, who says
fun at the zoo is just for the kids. Riding in Grady's wagon, this only lasted for about an hour.
We'll pull it Mommy you guys take a break.

Checking out the ducks in the nasty water. Like we can't see ducks at home

I was so excited when we got to the giraffes because the line was only about 5 people long, which meant we could feed the giraffes:) Olivia was pretty impressed with it and pretty amazed with the size of its tongue.

My girl loves a penguin. The penguin exhibit is pretty cool, there is an underwater viewing area you can crawl under and see them in the water.
Olivia just wouldn't look at me to take a picture of them in the nest, but Grady was all smiles:)

We had a GREAT trip today, I can't wait to take Olivia back again.
