Lions, Tigers, and Dinosaurs..Oh my!
















Today we visited the Brookfield Zoo! It was incredibly crowded due to the holiday weekend, but it was all worth it seeing James' expression while viewing most of the exhibits. I say "most" of the exhibits, because the dinosaur exhibit wasn't quite the reaction that we expected. Yes, James' favorite movie these days is Jurassic Park..but seeing dinosaurs that are life size, moving, and roaring at you from just feet away, isn't cool!. As we were walking through the path that lead to the dinosaurs, we spotted the T-Rex. I've never seen a 2 year old jump out stroller so fast in my life! He held onto Dada, tree frog style, and wouldn't even look at the dinosaurs! Naturally, we were laughing because it was pretty cute/funny! Mean parents! As we walked away from the dino exhibit, James became instantly tough and started yelling, "come here, dino-yaurs....bad dino-yaurs!. "

Other favorites of the day..the gorillas, rhino's, mere kat's, and giraffes! It was a fun day and we can't wait to go back!

I still can't get over his reaction to the fire works. To see such a tough guy melt like that was not what I expected from him. Hope the 1/2 marathon went well!
