Central Park Zoo

We lucked out and had T's old friend Liam visiting from Connecticut so we decided to make a fun-filled day of it at the Central Park Zoo. I've been to every other zoo in every other borough but somehow I had never visited the zoo in my own dang backyard--how can that be? It's a small zoo but that didn't stop us from spending six hours looking (and re-looking) at each and every animal. These boys have energy, lots of energy!

These three played so well together all day and had so much fun. I know this is silly but it made me want to have another boy! Not a baby boy, a T and Ever aged boy!

Quinn was there too, peering at bears and trying to eat fly's off of the concrete. Ooooh, she was mad when I shooed it away, but luckily a carrot brought back the smiles!

We got an extra-large Dippin Dots and the boys went to town. I've never seen them inhale anything faster or love anything more. What made it even more fun was that we ordered poppin' dots which is cherry ice cream with pop rocks. Their mouths were fizzing and they couldn't stop laughing!

Of course their favorite part was feeding the farm animals. City kids for sure, more excited about a cow and a goat than a grizzly bear!

And the obligatory picture with Balto to end our Central Park adventure. It was so fun to see Liam and have such a great day at the zoo.
