Today was the day for a train ride...at least, it was since Christian decided that it was. He's been saying "choo-choo" for weeks since the last time we went to the zoo the train was closed. And, since his birthday is Friday, we wanted to make the trip all together and before t-ball starts up. The rest of Omaha also decided that it was a good day to visit our zoo (and the sun decided to make up for the rain earlier today with a real scorcher!) Here is Christian getting all excited for the big arrival!
And, here it comes!
We also had fun visiting the petting zoo and the budgie exibit. Emily enjoyed climbing on the spider's web that they have set up.
We topped off the morning with a visit to the aquarium (of course) and just as we were leaving, I saw a familiar face...my best friend, Michelle! She and her husband were in town just for the day and we knew we'd both be at the zoo today, but didn't plan any special meet-up times. (It must've been fated to have found each other in a crowd like today's!) Her little boy, Rian, was totally passed out in his stroller, but it was fun to catch up with her briefly before heading home. Hopefully, we'll get to hang out for real over the holidays!

The zoo is always fun. We haven't got all the way through the Detroit zoo in two trips! Too much to see. Christian must get his love of trains from Grandpa! He's always up for a train show.
I' m so excited for you! Congrates on #3!! Wow what a wonderful mothers day you had! I love the train pics, my boys would have loved...... to be there.
