Put me in the zoo!

This morning we decided to go to Como Zoo, which is the smaller of the two zoos in the Twin Cities - but it is also closer and free. The highlight of the trip was the baby giraffe that was born last week - it was 5'6" and 145 lbs at birth! Joe also really liked the lions and asked to "go down there" so he could be closer to them. We also saw a mountain lion climbing, a tiger pacing, two reindeer roaming, an orangutan grazing, lots of monkeys playing, a big gorilla sitting, a zebra standing, a few sea lions swimming, and a polar bear sleeping. All of that in about an hour - we had to get back home for naptime! Clara looked around from the close confines of the Moby sucking her fingers while Joe walked and hung from all the railings he could find.
