We went to the Dallas Zoo this weekend with my parents. The girls had so much fun. There were statues of all the animals throughout the zoo that the girls loved to pose with.
Victoria is so funny. She loves for me to take pictures of her now. She pretends to pose like a model. Bella goes along for the ride and just cracks up at whatever Victoria does.
The gang poses in front of the new African safari exhibit. It was so nice to see the elephants and other animals finally had lots of room to play around. They also had a really neat giraffe area where they came right up to you to eat treats out of your hand on a walkway/bridge.
The girls loved playing on these statues. Victoria walks/balances on the alligator, while Bella tempts her fate by sticking her hand in his mouth.
We also went into a bird aviary, but Bella was more
enthralled with balancing on a log with two leaves. She has become so independent lately. After walking
across the log, she asked for Grandma Mary's hand to jump down. Grandma Mary tried to hold her hand then going down the 20 stairs to the ground level, but Bella would have nothing to do with that. To add insult to injury- Grandma Mary even said, "Bella watch out for that last step with the puddle of water." Bella jumped straight into it with a giant splash.
Monkeys see, monkeys do.
This is probably one of the last times Bella will be getting a
piggie back from Grandpa Joe:)
Victoria was so excited to see the butterfly exhibit (along with her other favorite- the
kangaroos.)
After 5 hours the kids and us started to peter out. It was a hot day, but it really didn't start to bother us too much until the afternoon hours. On the way home we stopped at 7-11 for
Slurpees. A great time!
