More Dinosaur Park Fun

MJ didn't have speech today & the weather couldn't have been better! After we took MJ to her post-op I met my friend Jessica at her house & we loaded up the kids & off we went to the dinosaur park. Jessica has never been & wanted to check it out before her sister came over & we just love to go!

April 2007: June 2008: April 2009: They decided to climb on the first dinosaur we allowed them to:


They're trying to get Kinzie in the basket: On to the water play area:


Here the monster of a slide they have there:
I finally talked to her down the slide: Of course what trip would be complete w/o stopping by the dinosaur head?


While Jessica was taking pictures of her kids in the T-Rex head I put MJ in the stroller.... little did I realizes that she would want to stay there.
Kinzie (who's two) inseaded that she want to push my lazy child.
MJ being lazy: She fell asleep on the way back. They were all wiped out- hooray! We all had a blast & couldn't have had a better time!
Where are we going?

Frankfurt Zoo

We dropped Allie off that morning in Frankfurt & decided to go to the zoo there. I've heard people talked about how great it was & they did not disappoint!

We asked MJ want she wanted to see at the zoo & she said "A horse". Of all things! Well, we did run into one:



We decided to go under to watch them & got a show from the seals & the sea lions;
She got a kick out of watching them:
She being a seal:

MJ & me doing the flamingo:

I'm not sure if you can tell but those are penguins. How cool is that?
MJ love them!

We needed an ice cream break: Here's the hippos: We decided to go let MJ play at the park. Here's Ben helping her on the monkey bars:
On the way out we saw my favorite the tigers: We decided to go on base to check the box & got a package from my parents. My mom sent MJ some more dress up things & she had a ball playing w/ all the new things from her Mimi: Allie made it home later that night her time. We all had a great time together.
