A group of monkeys

While Jake was in TN a few weeks back I took a chance and packed up all 3 monkeys for a trip to the zoo.
Not an easy task with a 3-to-1 ratio.
That being said.....I've never bee more impressed with my girls. 
Simply put, they.were.amazing. 
Well mannered. 
Good listeners. 
Well behaved.
It's nice to see all the hard working of parenting pay off and even nicer having such an enjoyable day with my baby girls.

We're here!
My happy girls
Swinging with the monkeys 
Ooh ooh ee ee!!!
Saying hi to Packy 
Selfie time
Lions, our favorite! 
Giddy up!
"Look! I'm riding a little cub!"
Love her enthusiasm 
Is it obvious we spend a good amount of time at the lion exhibit? 
The new lion cubs hiding out behind Daddy
 The leopards were napping right up close to the viewing glass
How we look to a python (heat sensory) - can you tell who's who?
Peek-a-boo
They climbed in and insisted I take a pic - always happy to oblige! 
We got an up-close intro to one heft porcupine 
Doing the flamingos 
Selfie time again!
For all the times I've been to the zoo, I've never been inside the bird area. Something about birds freak me out. Like seriously ooged out. But when Natty saw they could feed the lorikeets, I didn't suppose she would actually DO it. Yep. I was wrong.  
Even Ash got in on the feeding action....
....meanwhile I tried really hard to avoid those scary, winged creatures 
Not to be outdone by my 6 and 4 year old, I tried my hand at feeding them. And now that I've done it, I'll never have to do it again.
The 1 thing they asked for was taking a pic with the giant bear at the gift shop
On the way home I couldn't stand the idea of wasting such a beautiful day, so it was milkshakes at the rocket ship park

It was a long walk for those pocket-person legs
