Hogel Zoo

Yesterday My sister-in-law and I took all the kids to the zoo. It was Cooper's first time and we picked the perfect day and time. It was cloudy the whole time so it wasn't even hot! First we went to see the Elephants. Cooper wasn't that interested in them even though they were moving around. As we walked through the zoo a pattern started to develop. If the animal wasn't moving he didn't care about it. He would look around at the other people and start baby babbling to them. Giving them big smiles and coo's. It was really cute! If an animal was close to the glass I would put him right up against it and he would put his hands on the glass and start talking to it. After seeing all the animals we decided to go the new carousel. Cooper sat on a bear and his cousin's sat on the row of animals right behind him. He didn't mind it but didn't love it either. I dont know why but he kept trying to lean back. At least the girls had fun! After that we headed up to have some lunch and on the short walk Cooper fell asleep in his stroller. Poor guy was tuckered out! We did get him a pet Lion from the gift shop and a cute sun hat for next time!

How fun!!!! I love the Hogle Zoo. Our zoo up here in Logan struggles quite a bit. lol it's basically just a bunch of woodland animals and exotic birds. It's still fun though. :) It will get funner and funner for Cooper every year! I'm glad you guys had fun. (I'm sure he enjoyed it more than he let on, even if it was just talking to all the people walking around that he liked best.. :) )
