We went to a new zoo! Sunday morning we woke up kinda early. Well, not really early...but we had to get ready on a Sunday morning and we don't usually have to do that. Then we drove to Omaha to the Henry Doorly Zoo! Daddy's birthday and Pop Pop's birthday and Aunt Katie's birthday are all in July, so we get together one time to celebrate. Going to the zoo was an awesome way to do that!
First we saw a jaguar!
Then we saw Grandma Sue has her own carousel!
We got to touch sting rays! And it was REALLY funny when they splashed us.
Then Emma and I got to ride a camel!
There was a lot of walking at the zoo. It was good to be able to take a break and get pushed in the stroller.
We passed a prairie dog town--they were everywhere! And they let us get really close to them.
Then we met a silly lemur.
Snack breaks are also very important.

Daddy was trying to get Damien and Hadley to sleep by pushing them around a lot...but they stayed awake.
Elephants!
Aquarium!
I was tired. I didn't take a morning nap like I usually do. And then I just couldn't seem to fall asleep in the stroller, even though I was really tired. There was just so much to see and hear, I couldn't close my eyes. Until Mommy fed me...that did the trick. I finally got in a bit of a nap while the others checked out the swamp.
More photo ops.
Our family!
After awhile, we went back to Grandma Sue's carousel and took a spin.
Then we took the train! Mommy tried to use her arms to take a picture of all of us. It kind of worked.
Cool dude.
I can play the kazoo!
Our final ride was taking the sky train. It was so cool!
Then it was time to leave. Damien and I didn't make it too long in the car.
What a great day!!! Happy birthday Pop Pop, Aunt Katie & Daddy!
