San Diego Part 2 - The Zoo

Our second full day in San Diego was also a great day!

We once again started with some hotel fun.

What 'cha doing, Jack?

Oh, nothing...
I'm just feeling his hair with my fist.

We walked a LOT. Did you know this place is virtually all up hill?! I almost died pushing the stroller up and down the hills!

Daddy and the big boys

Mommy and Jack at the waterfall in the aviary.

Mommy and the crew at the polar bear exhibit.
(It ended up being a big, sleeping polar bear. lol)

We saw lots of animals...



We fooled around a lot.





Jack went into the petting zoo.
And ran from the goats.




Jason and daddy went on an
archaeology dig.





Jason as one of the archaeologists.



Daddy as an "Alien life forms" technician.



The street dancers putting on a show.

Of course there was more eating.

Um, Jack was there, too, but he didn't get pictured. Oops!

The boys made hand prints for me and grandma. I'm already obsessed with the boys' hand prints, so it is no wonder I thought this was the coolest idea. :)




The talented Sarah painting Jason's hand for his print.




My hand prints of the boys' hands as their favorite animals -
an orca (Shawn), a shark (Jason), and a duck (Jack)




Grandma's hand prints...a herd of elephants.

We took a few family pictures.

Take #1

They look so thrilled. Take #2. lol

Take #3.

As you can tell, the boys had so much fun they were exhausted!

Trying hard not to fall asleep.

Trying hard not to die from boredom. Ahem.

Shawn's favorite thing from the day was reading with daddy.

Jason's favorite thing from the day was getting to pick the music for bed time.
