Lions and Tigers and Bears!

Since Sophia has never been to the zoo we thought it would be fun to take her to the Dallas Zoo on her actual birthday this year!  It turns out that this was our first big outing with both girls (other than driving to San Antonio and Austin).  I felt like we were going on a trip when I was packing (stroller, lunches, drinks, extra clothes, diapers, wipes, sunscreen, etc...) 

She really loves ALL animals and this trip was no different...she had a great time looking at all of the elephants, giraffes and zebras and even walking around among the birds and turtles!  She loved the children's zoo area as well where she could touch the goats and the ponies and get up close to several other animals.  We had a blast and plan to come back soon because we became members! :)

Sophia loved watching this elephant play in the mud!

Waiting to feed the giraffes.

She enjoyed the statues almost as much as the real animals :)

Having fun in the petting zoo!

That night after we got home Sophia blew out 3 candles on her birthday cupcake!
