A Day At The Zoo

This past Friday we went to Asheboro to the North Carolina Zoo. Ben has been many times since he grew up in North Carolina, but it was a first for me and the girls. We were so excited to take Ellie to the zoo at this age since she knows the animals and is talking so much these days. We also got to use our new stroller for the girls that our friends gave us since they don't need it anymore and it was great. Ellie just took it all in at the beginning and needed time to warm up to all the people around. By the time we got to the side with the elephants she was excited. She loved the elephants and said they were just like "Wrinkles" (her stuffed elephant at home). We saw many animals and had a picnic lunch. We had a great time! Ellie did a great job and listened very well, which was a huge deal since she skipped her nap that day and it was a very busy day. Quinn on the other hand got many naps and also did very well cruising along in the stroller or sling. Here are a few pictures of our adventure:
