What a Zoo!

Rest Stop
Yesterday, Matt, Katie, and I took the four cousins to the Minnesota Zoo. Apparently, a lot of other families had the same idea. I guess that is what happens when it is finally nice in MN in June. It was definitely an experience, especially with two of the four in mid-potty training. Lots of trips to the bathroom.
Highlights of the visit:
  • Jake being really crabby and only wanting to see the sharks
  • Paige deciding to walk more than ride in the stroller
  • Paige getting out of the stroller while Matt was still pushing it
  • Having to frantically look around to make sure the three older ones were close by. It was always Paige and Jake who were ahead of the group. Leashes may be necessary next time.
  • A passerby letting Katie know that Jordie took off his sandal (he wore only one sandal after that-she did find it-she knew all he would try to do would take it off again)
  • Hailey and Jake constantly asking during lunch if they could go play on the playground
  • Numerous trips to the bathroom
  • Sticking together with three strollers and four people walking
  • Hailey telling me she couldn't feel her feet on the way to the car at the end of the day. She "literally" thought her feel fell off. Her words.
  • How exhausted Matt, Katie, and I were! We spent one too many hours there...
