Ryan's First Trip to the Zoo!

Last week, Ryan and I met Andrea and Stephanie and their kiddos at the zoo. It was Ryan's first time going, and this animal-loving mama was pretty excited about taking him.

Meeting up with Andrea and Teagan after we parked- Reynolds is hiding behind T. :)

Sweet T in front of her favorite stop- the flamingos!

And Ryan in front of the gorillas- at this point I don't think he even saw a gorilla but was quite excited about all of the kids around him. The boy loves making friends. ;)

Teagan and Finn- peek!

Next we stopped by the pandas- Ryan loved them!

You can't tell here, but he was flapping his arms and legs as he watched this panda eat.

Then we went to the petting zoo. This was Ryan's first goat sighting.

And soon after the petting zoo, this happened:

And a shot of all of us with our kiddos. I'm so thankful for these girls and their sweet families!

I hope you're planning to join us tomorrow for April's Mid-Month Confessions! The link-up will go live at 8am. And don't feel pressure to have a long list of confessions. I have 3, maybe 4 to share tomorrow that are all pretty simple but funny moments from the past month. Laughing at my less-than-stellar moments makes the whole mom gig that much more fun. So feel free to swing by tomorrow to read what I have to share and connect with some other bloggers who will be joining in the link-up. You can check out previous confession posts for ideas here. See you then!
