I'm goin' to the zoo, zoo, zoo...

Adam is working kind of a weird schedule where he gets every other Friday off, so last weekend we decided to visit the zoo. It was honestly one of the best zoos we have ever been too. Most of the animals were in open enclosures without glass, so we could see all the animals really well. Plus, they were so close to us!
They also had a petting zoo, and we got a kick watching little kids run away from the goats.
My favorite exhibit was the orangutans. They had this little baby one that was so cute! I could've just sat there and watched it for hours.
Adam loved the turtles. The enclosures are set up so most of them had water between us and the animals, and I'm pretty sure Adam was more interested in finding turtles in the water than looking at the animals in the exhibit.
In order to get his attention, I decided to try on a little disguise. I think it worked!
They had a bunch of gators, but it's a lot more fun to see them in the wild. They get so fat at the zoo!
We mostly loved this zoo because the animals were so active. We totally watched these two go at each other and it was crazy. I thought the poor wildebeest in there was going to have a heart attack.
On Saturday, we took a little trip to Pensacola Beach. After seeing what the Louisiana shore looks like, we thought it might be nice to go to a real beach.
Adam had never been swimming in the ocean before, and he loved it! It was a gorgeous beach with white sand and really clear water. We even saw a jellyfish!
It was also really nice because the water was shallow, so we could go pretty far out and still reach. Actually, we had a hard time even finding water deep enough to reach Adam's shoulders!
Also, I thought I'd add this picture on for you baby bump watchers. This is me at 29 weeks!

    Yay for baby! Although, you really don't look very pregnant. I didn't realize Adam had never been in the ocean, crazy! I bet the water down there is suuuper nice. We went to Charleston a few weeks ago and it was wonderful. Anyway, I'm glad you're having a good time and guess what? Our baby is coming anytime in the next 2-3 weeks, yikes!

  2. Your bump isn't big enough! Haha :) But I can't believe how active those animals were! How fun!
