Play Date with Robert (11-25-11)

Cayden and Robert had a play date today at the zoo!! We haven’t seen Robert and Michelle since our last play date at the beginning of the year, so when Robert’s mom, Michelle, asked if we wanted to play, we were so excited!

We met up at the zoo the day after Thanksgiving pretty early in hopes that it wouldn’t be too crowded. Cayden tried to share his breakfast with Robert first thing.

We pretty much visited everything at the zoo! Some of the highlights of the day:

-watching the sea lions swim around
-visiting the “ah ahs” and Robert telling Michelle that he wanted one…hehe
-sharing donut holes while looking at the longhorns and painted dogs
-watching the tigers play together
-seeing the lion sleeping peacefully and basking in the sun
-playing in the huts in the African exhibit
-pushing all the buttons that imitate animal sounds
-riding the carousel, Cayden’s first time!
-pulling the wagon together
-pushing each other in the wagon
-showing each other their belly buttons at lunch
-seeing the baby elephants play together in the water
-looking at all the fish in the aquariums
-eating ice cream

They did a great job together with only a few toddler misunderstandings. It was great to hang out with Michelle and chat and watch our boys play. We’ll definitely have to get together again soon and try a new play date location. Thanks for asking us out Michelle! (Click picture to see the rest!)
