Happy Birthday, Kiddo #3

Yesterday was Kiddo #3's birthday.  Kiddo turned 12.  He entered the world at a whopping 10 1/2 pounds (he was my second largest.  Yes, I had one even bigger!) and he has been making us smile ever since.




My animal lover decided to visit the zoo, so we braved the cold (and boy was it cold!) to go.  It was a fun outing.  We had the place practically to ourselves and of course, we got to see the polar bears and penguins just loving life.  :-)



(we found lots of indoor places to warm up like the ones above in the new Kids Zoo U)



(she even roared three times at the birthday boy!)

(you just have to love a heated restaurant!)


(the otters loved following Kiddo 3 and 4's hands)

(a new version of 'The Thinker?')




(playing hide and seek in the 'Treehouse.'  Did I mention how much fun it was to be one of only 5 or 6 families in the whole zoo?)  :-)



Being sung to by family after a nice dinner.  These family members hadn't seen Kiddo #4 since her birthday 2 weeks ago, so they both got sung to!  :-)

We always loved heading to the zoo or museum on a cold day too(the inside exhibits:) Looks like you enjoyed yourselves!

Another zoo goer! What zoo is this? If it's DC, it's different than I remember!
