We decided that we wanted to make Valentine's Day a family holiday this year. So we went to the zoo. We had a great time. We saw elephants swaying back and forth to music in their heads. We also got to see one of them go to the bathroom. Karis thought it looked like a water fountain. We have been working with her on going to the potty, so we explained to her that elephants go "t.t." too. (I realize that this information might be too much, Katie, but we thought we would add it anyway. Sorry)
Karis and Page watched the animals together. I think they were watching the camels in a very unnatural environment. There was an animal that looked like deer in the camel area as well.
Karis chilled out with some juice between animal sightings.
Karis was excited that most of the railings had spaces through which she could see the animals. Here she is trying to see the camels.
Our first family picture with all 4 of us just happens to be in front of the elephant water fountain. Karis really likes that the elephants are "taking a bath".
We had a really great day at the zoo. The weather was not hot at all. We were actually a little cool. Thia slept most of the day. Karis favorite animals were the monkeys. She was so excited that they swang on the swings in their cages. We could not get any pictures because they were too fast. Some were moving around. Others were just being lazy. When we mention the zoo the Karis she points outside and says, "the zoo outside; the monkeys swinging"
We hope all of you had a wonderful Valentine's as well. Just so that you do not think that Page got off easy with the "family holiday", here is a picture of the beautiful flowers Page had sent to me at the house the day before Valentine's.
