We went to the Wild Animal Park the other day

queenlyzard (Aiyana) offered to take me, and thank you very much :)

The nieces had a blast, AND they were on their best behavior. The day ROCKED. (Well, except for my right eye watering all day and making me seriously annoyed.)

We went on the tram-thing and saw the animals, we fed the lorikeets as my mom insisted (the girls were very happy to go in, but TERRIFIED at the birds flying at them! We managed to get them to sorta pose with ME feeding the birds, but they scurried away as soon as they could), we rode the carousel, we goofed off in the gift shop (and left without buying anything, yay!), we saw the baby cheetahs (awwwwww!) - it was a great day.

And we have pictures! I took some too, but those have to wait to be developed, you'll see them when you see them.

Me taking a picture



I have so few pictures of me wearing the nieces, I should make sure to get a few more this summer, they're both getting so big :(



Walking



Ana was *fascinated* by that balloon. She couldn't care less about the animals, but did we see the balloon?????



Not a great pic, but we did what we could





Another try





SOOO cute







I think Ana is the giraffe





Hats



Birdies!





















Carousel















Rhino





My mom took this pic



Aiyana and me



There are a ton more pictures here, including some of animals... kinda the reason for going to a zoo in the first place, right?

We also have three professional pictures at exorbitant prices.

Oh my goodness, they've gotten so big!

Aaah, and I love the pictures with the lorikeets!

There's a scale here, in the kitchen. Ana is 40 pounds, Eva is 30. Ana can carry her sister... and I can carry 70 pounds of both of 'em at once!

A Connie!

I don't think I've ever seen a picture of you before.

Really? I'm sure I've posted others, just probably before I knew you, is all.

*smiles* A lot of these came out better than I thought they did!

...you look so much bigger than me in the photos of us together, though. Am I really that tiny?
