Zoo

Taking advantage of a day off of work for Matt, we went to the zoo yesterday! After a fight with our GPS about the best route to take, we made it to the Portland zoo. We were blessed with a beautiful sunny, slightly warm, day. Erika loved having such a huge place to run around in and new things to see. She liked looking at the other visitors to the zoo a little more than she liked the animals, but Matt and I enjoyed it! Laurel slept through the entire trip....she doesn't even know that we went anywhere! The animals were enjoying the sunny day as well so they were active and alert. Erika did like the monkey exhibits....she was so cute making her monkey sounds at them! She also enjoyed the exhibits that had fish swimming at her level. It was a great day to walk around and let Erika run around and tire herself out for the day!
Beautiful day for the zoo!




She really liked the salmon and sturgeon that were at her level.

Tell Erika that the monkey house is my favorite part, too! Looks like she had a wonderful time. :D

Looks like so much fun and the weather couldn't have been more perfect for a visit to the zoo!
