Philly Zoo

First things first... ya I am riding a CAMEL! Maddex saw these kids riding a camel and he wouldn't let it go! We walked the entire Zoo and yes he like the animals but he just kept saying "After the (whatever we were looking at) are we going to ride the camel?" Thank goodness it was only 6 bucks so as you can see by his HUGE smile he loved it!

It was very stinky and very uncomfortable and BIG! It was kinda intimidating.

This dang goose wouldn't leave us alone he kept trying to eat Jett's pretzel out of his hand. Jett kept looking at me and saying "Whoa!" He is so cute! (Jett! Not the goose of course)

Checking out the giraffes!

This manly gorilla was sitting right next to the glass just chowing down on some cardboard pizza boxes. He was so big and kinda freaked me out cuz he would look you right in the eye!

This 13 year old new daddy orangutan was so cute he kept playing peek a boo with that green blanket. Maddex thought he was way funny! His wife and new baby were tucked away resting!

This is at the Barnyard Petting Area and Jett was not so sure about all the animals running around, he stayed pretty close to his daddy.

Maddex of course LOVED this and got to brush the goats.

Jett and Tyler checking out the sheep and more goats, Jett did not leave Tyler's side it was pretty cute!

Me and Jett pretend feeding the ducks, this duck actually tried to eat my wedding ring! If he would have succeeded we would have had roast duck for dinner! Jett held onto my pant leg every time a duck came close to us, it is so funny how different he and Maddex are.

Maddex chase the ducks all over the place! He would lure them to him and then jump at them to scare them. He is ALL boy!

Needles to say the Philly Zoo was pretty fun we got to see some animals I have never seen before and that was way fun for us! I love making memories with my family and watching my kids faces when they are learning and growing from the experiences they have!
