Monkey Boy at the Zoo

It was nice to have a day with Carter at the zoo. It kept my mind occupied with the exception of the ride up there and back. It's hard to believe it's been two months. Here is Carter the Great in action. Climbing is one of his favorite things to do.

Here is Carter with his friend, Jack. They were climbing and having a great time and I heard another mom scold her child and tell them, "The sign says 'no climbing on the rocks'." I thought to myself - what is she talking about? Then, we walked out of the area and saw the sign... Oh well!

Here they are riding on the eagle. I didn't see a sign with this one.

Here he is petting an alligator. That was pretty cool. I learned something new at this program as well. Owls' eyes are fixed. They can't move them like we can. That's why they turn their heads like they do. I may have just made myself look really stupid for not knowing that, but I had never heard it before.

Here's one of Maddie with her chalk-self from this evening. It was a beautiful day today. After school, we went to a friends and Carter and Maddie swam for awhile. Then we went home and played outside some this evening.
