On President's Day there were some of the moms in our group of friends whose husbands had to work so we decided to venture to downtown Houston to the zoo. This was my first major trip with the two kiddos but knowing that my girlfriends would be there to help if needed so I felt pretty comfortable about taking this adventure on and we had a great day, even with a downpour! That's right, it POURED on us towards the end of the day! The kids loved it of course though and thankfully it was towards the end of the day so we sprinted through the monkeys and then called it a day.
At the beginning of the day, nice and dry!
Ella snoozed a little
and was up for awhile. Thankfully my friend, Jamie, was well prepared and had raincoats (that her boys didn't want to wear) so we draped them over the stroller and this little peanut stayed nice and dry and probably didn't even know it was raining!
Joseph was ready for the rain! But, of course, like a typical boy, he was soaking wet by the end of the day and loved every minute of it.

Checking out the elephants-notice Joseph's wet hair and shirt! This was towards the end of the day
Joseph really loved being so close to all of the animals and he walked the entire time and did a great job. The petting zoo was a huge hit but that wasn't a huge surprise considering his love for animals. A little bit of rain didn't dampen our day at all-it was a great day!
