Bronx Zoo with Daddy, Grammy and Grandpa

Daddy took Zachary and Zoe to the Bronx Zoo and Grammy and Grandpa met them there for a day filled with animals, lots of walking and treats and sunshine. Grammy and Grandpa got the kids yummy ice cream treats which they both enjoyed. We think this was Zachary's first ice cream cone and Zoe of course wanted to lick her ice cream too. It was a great day, and the kids continue to talk about seeing all the animals and all the things they experienced at the zoo.
Grammy and Grandpa had lots of fun spending time with the kids in the zoo. It was a trip that no one will forget.


Zoe was so excited to see real live Zebras. Given the word Zebra starts with Z, the kids have been hearing lots about Zebras their whole lives. So to see it in person was priceless. As were the giraffes, elephants and lions (local zoo doesn't have any of these large animals).

Zachary and Zoe visited the children's zoo within the Bronx zoo and got to get up close (and personal?) with many of the animals as well as feed them ... see the kids checking out the sheep.

Zoe was ssshhhing the group, she must have thought that little guy was sleeping and she also ventured through the tunnels to see the Prairie dogs.

Zachary climbed all along this tree (without help) and he enjoyed it and was very proud of himself.
