Visiting the "Pokie Pines"

Donnie has been requesting a trip to the zoo for a few weeks to see the "pokie pines."  He was pretty upset when we found them asleep in the corner.  My kids do not like sleeping animals and like to yell "wake up" as loud as they can.  I think they may have learned that from their Daddy!!  The animals at our zoo pretty much sleep 24/7 so we do a lot of yelling.  We stopped to play before leaving and Donnie slipped in a big muddy mess and fell in it.  Not sure how he didn't see it, but for the kid who doesn't like to get dirty to fall in a mud puddle???  I had to work some Mommy magic to keep him from melting down (it was also nap time).  We laughed it out and took a few pictures then headed to see the bears on the way out.  At the exit I stripped Donnie down to his underwear so he could ride in the stroller back to the car.  View Album for more pictures.
