Trip to the Zoo

On Wednesday Kristi and Nicholas went to the Minnesota Zoo with Kat and Ali and Ali's grandparents Larry and Sandy. A thunderstorm went through and we had to run to the farm area to take cover in some of the barns. We waited it out for about 20 minutes. The babies loved the adventure!

Nick was awake for the majority of the day and he was fascinated with the animals, especially the cow. As you can see in the video (click on the third box below, it will link you to a video), he loved staring at the cow. I'm not sure if it was because this was the closest we could get to an animal or if he takes after his two great-grandfathers on his mom's side (both were dairy farmers).


For anyone interested, the new grizzly bear exhibit is great!












Tomorrow is Kristi's first day back at work and Tim is staying home with Nicholas all day. This is a first for both Tim and Nick - they haven't spent that much time together alone before. It will be a good trial run before regular daycare starts next week. Wish us all luck!
