We love the zoo!

It's been almost a year since we've update our blog and we thought it was about time. Saturday we took off toward Royal Oak with lions and elephants on our minds and even though we didn't see either of those, we had a pretty darn good day.

Alex has been talking up a storm about animals. He absolutely LOVES elephants. If you ask him what an elephant says he will hold his nose to simulate his elephant trunk and make the elephant noise, and he can roar like a lion with the best of them. So, we decided to pack him up on one of the hottest days this weekend and head out.

He loved the zebras, the kangaroos, the rhinos but there was one thing he loved more than anything else.

The Meerkats. 

Yep, that's right. He loved those cute little animals that sit on their hind legs straight up and dig their little tunnels. One in particular took a shining to our little man as well and hung out by the glass so they could stare at each other.

Sadly, there aren't any elephants at the zoo and the lions aren't there right now either, but that didn't matter, it was a fantastic day!
