Whew, guys, it's been a hot minute since I've done a blog post! I promise our life isn't super boring. In fact, it's quite the opposite. We've been so busy this summer/early fall that blogging has fallen to the wayside. But I just had to share about my trip to the zoo on Monday with Grant, Nikki, and Erin!
Erin and I have been planning to do something with Grant (and his momma of course) on Columbus Day since this summer. After much debate, we finally settled on the zoo (thank you Connor for letting Grant's first zoo trip happen without you!). We weren't planning on it being 90 degrees in October, but I do have to say that it didn't feel that hot. Maybe it's because we were having too much fun!
I think it's safe to say that Grant loved the zoo (not so much the two hour car ride each way). He was mesmerized by the fish in the hippo tank, and I think the winner of his favorite animal was the monkeys. He was oh-oh and ah-ah all the way through the primate house. Talk about cute! He also loved the penguin building, especially slapping his hands on the barrier by the water and then putting his hands all over Nikki's face. She probably swallowed more penguin water than she cares to admit.
I'm already looking forward to our next adventure with Grant. I know the zoo will be a favorite place to go for years to come, but I'm looking forward to even more new adventures with my nephew!
