The Toledo Zoo

Levi had a doctor appointment in Toledo last week so I took the kids to the Toledo Zoo. Brandon got to go with us but Maddie had basketball camp so she couldn't come. It was HOT! But we all had a good time. Sierra actually touched a live snake! Sienna & I didn't even want to go into the reptile house. We got to hear the elephant do his thing and Sienna got soooo excited! She was really cute (everyone at the zoo told me so after seeing her reaction). The zoo had baby polar bears on exhibit. They were really cute playing with a ball and jumping in the water. When the bear came out of the water he shook his head (in the way that animals do). Sienna thought this was really funny. When she gets water in her eyes in the pool I remind her of the polar bear. Then she shakes her head and moves on. We now refer to this as 'Do the polar bear'. Brandon was really a delight to take with us. He was a big help to me with the smaller kids and nice for Sierra to have an older kid to talk to. Here's some pictures of our trip. Click on the picture to see a bigger version of it.
