The girls actually slept in a little today, until 8:30. I was up at 7:00 to workout, shower and start getting ready for the day. Once we were all ready, fed and good to go - we made our way to Como Zoo to meet up with our friends for the day. A while back we bought a Star Tribune Steal for the the zoo's amusement park - buy one wristband, get one free. Amelia can go on quite a few of the rides now, so it was a great deal. And, the zoo itself is free, so it's a cheap, fun day. And, perfect weather for it.
We arrived at the zoo around 11:00 - walked around for a while, saw all of the sleepy animals (I'm sure they've just been miserable, poor things), ate some lunch, then made our way to the rides. Olivia and Annabelle went on a ton of rides, having the time of their lives. Amelia and Finley got to go on a few too...Amelia spent most of the day relaxing in the stroller, but did get on a few rides and loved it.
We finally left the zoo around 5:00 - LONG, fun day! I think the girls were sleeping before we got out of the parking lot, they were exhausted! They went down for a nap when we got home, and I took advantage and napped myself. The sun took it out of me today for sure - I need to start using sunblock, my shoulders are getting out of control! Christian rested for a bit, then was off to hang out with a friend for a while.
The girls had a late dinner once they woke up, and we played for a while. Amelia seemed good as new by the end of the night, so I'm hoping her little heat exhaustion has passed. I got them to bed pretty easily - very late, but easy. I spent the night editing some pictures, watching some TV and relaxing. Perfect end to a great day.
Now, I'm really for my SUPER exciting day tomorrow - Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney - so excited!!!
