Dallas Zoo

Starting this new year we have enabled a behavioral chart for Isaac. His first goal he chose after getting all ten squares filled in was the zoo. It took almost a whole month to get those ten squares but I think the purpose of the chart is working. So here are some pictures of our little family at the zoo to celebrate Issac's accomplishments.

It started off pretty chilly but quickly warmed up. We decided that Emeri would have more fun outside of her car seat and sitting up like a big girl. We were right.

The lions were pretty fascinating  we got to see them be fed. The zoo keep hand fed them through the fence and we were right there to watch.

Andrew was so excited to see the lions that he would not look at me for a picture. Here he is saying "cheese" while still watching the lions.


This was by far the coolest part of the whole zoo, feeding and petting the giraffes. We had never been this close to a giraffe before and it was so awesome! I never realized just how massive these animals are.



 The elephants. 


Andrew started making elephant noises and raising both arms so Isaac and I joined in the fun.



A huge boa.

Here was Andrew's face when he heard the music in the room change. What a musical fanatic, even at the zoo he is aware of the change in a songs tempo.



This rattle snake would started rattling it's tail whenever anyone came up and touched the glass. It was an awesome and neat experience for the boys to be able to see that and not actually have to worry about being bit.

'Tree Frogs'


The zoo had this really neat kids area with a stream, play ground, horse rides, and animal petting.The last time we came to this zoo Andrew wasn't old enough to care to touch the goats, but this year he was all over it.
