We had absolutely gorgeous weather today and decided it would be a perfect day for a trip to the zoo. I knew that Jackson would be super stoked about the zoo this visit since he is all about the animals these days. I told Jackson this morning that we were going to the zoo and were going to see lions, and tigers and monkeys. He was BUCKED UP!
We went to breakfast first at Baker's Square and he was SO very good. Mark and I could actually enjoy our breakfast without having to fish for Jackson under the table to run all over trying to not bash into the waitstaff. He kept telling our waitress "Thanks" and it was entirely too cute. She complimented him on his blue eyes and his "cool hair". :)
Once we got to the zoo Jackson couldn't wait to get in and was holding my hand leading me to the first exhibit. We saw a pair of sleepy lynxes first and Jackson kept saying "Ohhhh how cute!". The sea lions and sea otters were a big hit. We totally lucked out and got to see the female tiger VERY close up. She was in the indoor encloser which has windows that you can look in and she kept walking right up to the glass. Jackson had his lil nose pushed up against the glass and was about 5 inches from a stunningly beautiful adult tiger. He LOVED it. Of course the petting farm was a huge hit as always and Jackson wanted nothing more than for alllll the goats to give him kisses.
It was a morning filled with "Ohhhh so cute"..."Look Momma/Pappa"..."Goat kisses"....and "SOOO excited". Couldn't think of a better to way to spend the day!
