When I woke up last Saturday I realized that Bob and I had an entire Saturday without a commitment or care in the world...not wanting to waste the precious time left in summer before the baby comes I suggested we take Ethan to the zoo! Bob was game and rounded up a couple of aunts, uncles, and cousins to come along. We had a blast. The zoo was surprisingly busy, but once we got in the gates the crowds were less noticeable.
It was fun to see Ethan so excited to see all the animals and watch his wonder as we walked to each habitat. He liked so many of the displays and loved having family along too! (Thanks for joining us Uncle Brian, Aunt Tonya, Uncle Kevin, Aunt Jenny & Girls) 
We had a great time watching the tiger eat his lunch and pace right in front of us. I may have stayed longer watching here than Ethan and Bob, but wow it was great.
Ethan loved the reptile house. He ran from glass window to glass window looking for and searching for each snake, turtle, and lizard...The first thing he said the next morning was "Seeing the snakes was fun mom!"
The giraffes put on a good show too. As soon as we all stepped up to the fence one of them came closer to us and pretty much posed for a few pictures.
The finale of our trip was a ride on the Zoo Train...you know Ethan loved this part. He's a train lover! We all had a fabulous time!

Sounds like you guys had a great Saturday :) How fun.
A trip to the Zoo. What a great day. Gram has a picture of her drinking water from that lion drinking fountain but that was a long time ago. Gram doesn't like snakes but the tiger and giraffe were beautiful. Glad you had a good day.
