Today was a warm, sunny day with a beautiful temperature of 86 degrees.. so we spent it with friends at the Miller Park Zoo in Bloomington!
Evie said that she didn't have a favorite part of the day.. just "all of it!", although I'd have to say that her favorite part was the rainforest exhibit. We had to go through it twice.
She enjoyed looking at animals with her best friend, Brookie, while Evan rode along in the stroller with Nathan. The boys got out to ride the carousel and to pet the goats at the petting area and then after we went to the free water park that's just outside of the zoo's entrance so the boys played in the water a bit.
A trip to Bloomington would never be complete without a visit to Krispy Kreme! There's nothing like going up to the counter and having a smiling lady hand you a fresh, warm doughnut before you even have a chance to order anything. The kids loved watching the doughnuts being made on the conveyor belts and seeing the icing pour down onto them.
We came home to sleepy boys, so my Evan went to bed very early tonight (5:30 pm), but is talking in his crib right now. :o)
Evie played outside in the yard for a bit with a couple of neighbors and did something today for the first time ever! She went across the monkey bars.. BY HERSELF! Once she realised that she could do it, she did it over and over again until she wore blisters onto the palms of her hands.. she's hurting tonight but was oh so proud!
Mommy and Daddy were proud, too!
What a perfect day!
Here are some pictures from today! Some taken by me, some by Jess! Enjoy!
