Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day weekend, Josh's parents and brother came up for a visit. We had never taken Luke to the Atlanta Zoo and so we all decided it would be fun to do. It was a hot day and the zoo parking lot was full so I was worried this was going to be a crowded place and really hot for pregnant me, but surprisingly, it didn't seem very crowded once we got inside. It is a pretty big zoo and had a great kids area.

Looking at lions



Our family by the giraffes



Searching for apes (we were looking at the apes forever!)



Luke's favorite (and mine) the orangutans. These two were hilarious, the little one kept trying to get the big one to play with him and the big one just kept pushing him away!



Luke for the first time ever in life climbed into a tube! He has been terrified of such things in the past, but he got in this one several times...a big deal!!






Josh, Luke, and Grammy



Petting Zoo! Luke loved brushing all the goats and sheep, I think he would have stayed there forever.







Luke got to ride on the carousel with Grammy. This was his reward for using the toilet in public for the first time ever. The zoo has great little toddler toilets in the women's bathroom. Another big deal!



We had a great time, just had to get going to get Luke home for a nap. We didn't quite make it to see all the animals that day so I guess we'll have to go back :)
