Zoo Day!

Scott took the day off so we could all go to the zoo. We left early in the morning so we could be there when it opened at 9:30. We got to Shoreline and Trevor said, "Daddy, the babe doesn't like her milk she spit it out." I reached behind me and touched Allie's hand. It was wet and had milk chunks on it. She threw up in her car seat. Of course the only change of clothes I had was a shirt. She had it everywhere! Thank goodness she took off her shoes and socks prior to this happening.

We got to the zoo, at 9:30, but we had to clean Allie up. Of course the sun was not out this morning like it has been the last few weeks so it was a little chilly. We stripped her of her clothes and put the new shirt and a jacket on her. We then got inside of the zoo and headed for the family restroom. We washed the clothes off and dried them with the hand dryer. She was now good to go :)

The kids had a lot of fun at the zoo. They loved the freedom to walk all over and see the animals. The girls kept pushing each other and giggling. Whenever Allie would stop pushing Kara, Kara would put her hand on her back and say "again, again". They were running and giggling and had everyone smiling at them.

After lunch I gave the girls a cookie while they were still in the stroller. They wanted down but I told them they either gave me the cookie and they could get down, or they could finish it then get down. Kara finished hers right away. Allie on the other hand wanted to save hers but did not want to give it up to me. Finally after seeing her sister have some freedom she shoved the cookie in her mouth. I finally let her out. A few minutes later I noticed her mouth was full. I gave her cheeks a little squeeze and out comes some cookie. She held onto the rest like a little chipmunk. 10 minutes later she spits the whole thing out. So not only is she a little smelly from her earlier episode, but now she is dirty from her cookie sitting in her mouth for 20 minutes!

We enjoyed the rest of the day at the zoo. Once we got home we put the girls right into the bath as Allie really needed it after her excellent adventures today. As soon as they got into the bath Kara pooped in the tub! I got them out right away, then Allie proceeded to go to the kitchen and pee on the tile in there. Finally we got them back in the tub and cleaned. Of course they went outside to play in the dirt... What a day!
