Zoo...again

We love our zoo membership.  We have been so many times this summer already.  The weather has been unbelievable here (low to mid 70s) for the last three days.  We haven't even been running our air conditioner!  So I, along with most other Ohioans, took the kids to the zoo this morning.  It was the busiest I have ever seen it.  We went early, so the crowd was getting pretty thick by the time we were ready to leave.  Thousands of strollers in that place!  We spent the majority of our time looking at the turtles.  I feel bad, because it is difficult for M and L to see some of the animals from their wagon.  But there is no way I am letting them out.  I know exactly what will happen...as soon as their feet hit the ground, they will take off- in opposite directions.  They end up not listening when I ask them to stay close.  I'll have to put them back in the wagon, and they will both end up in tears.  For now, we will just stick to visiting the animals they can see from their seats!  Anyway, they were little angels this morning, and we had a nice trip.  Here are some pictures of them wearing their 4th of July outfits, sharing snacks, and drinking Capri Suns on the way out.
