Bennett's First (Documented) Trip to the Zoo



Wow! Instead of looking at the rhino that's like 3 feet away, let's play on the fake rocks! Boys.




Wilson put his own shades on and I didn't have the heart to tell him!




Wilson wasn't even brave enough to sit on the spider! Maybe it helps if you have no idea what's going on! This really was Bennett's first train ride though. He really liked sitting next to big bro!



I think in Bennett's short 9 months of life, he has already gone to the zoo no less than 5 times. However, this last week was the first time his crazy mother remembered to bring and use her camera. Bennett still doesn't get what he's supposed to be looking at, but he did follow the two monkeys running around in front of his stroller (Wilson and Parker) really well and they were fine entertainment. Wilson found the landscaping in the animal exhibits (i.e. the waterfalls and rocks) much more fun than the actual animals and both he and Parker lost all will to go on until snacks were had. This trip we didn't make it past the penguins before we gave up and headed for the playground and the train on our way out. I guess that is one hazard to having a zoo pass, your kids get spoiled! Bennett is for sure more willing to pose for pictures than his brother, so there are some cute ones of him! I am just glad the weather has turned warm and we can get out and go!

I can't believe how much Bennett reminds me of Wil!
