Friday Mimi, Mike, Sayer, Greyson and I loaded up the car and headed north to the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha! The boys were so good in the car ride there. We only had to stop once to feed Greyson and change Sayer's pants. When we got to the zoo the weather couldn't have been any more pleasant... overcast and 80 degrees. Coming from a week full of sunshine and 90+ temps with heat indexes in the 100's it was a perfect day.
We visited the bear caves, the gorilla house, the orangutans, the lion dens and the biodome before heading to the train stop. Unfortunately, we missed the train and the boys weren't in any kind of mood to wait for the next one, so we didn't get to see the elephants!
Sayer seemed to enjoy the gorillas and bears the most. By the time we got to the lions and tigers he was wearing his "backpack" harness and he was more impressed with walking around "all by himself" than he was with the animals!
We definitely want to make a trip back this fall to see the exhibits that we missed this time around. Hopefully with a few more months of age, the zoo will be more impressive to Sayer!
Thanks for going with us Mimi! We couldn't have made the trip without you! We love you!
