Zoo Babies

We had a great Memorial Day weekend. Saturday we took the kids to the pool. After several rounds of swim lessons, Isabel is an old pro and jumped right in. This was Zak's first trip to the pool, however, and he was unsure of himself at first. I could see his point; when we walked in there was a sensory overload of children screaming, water splashing, and lifeguards blowing their whistles. By the end of the trip, though, Zak was standing on the edge and jumping into our arms, whether or not we were ready for him. Unfortunately, we don't have photos; we decided it was probably more important to make sure our kids didn't drown than it was for us to use the camera!

Sunday we decided that since Zak's a bit older it made sense to get a zoo membership. Then we loaded up the fam and headed to the zoo, along with most other citizens in the Columbus metropolitan area. The Columbus Zoo is really great, but much too big for the kids to see it all in one day. We hit a few highlights and then went home before it got too hot and crowded. I think the petting zoo was Zak's favorite.

Gee Ma, do you think I can ride it?

Looks and sounds like everyone had a "FUN" time! That's what it's "ALL" about.
