dinosaurs at the zoo.

We went to the zoo yesterday with some friends to see the new Dinosaur exhibit they have there this summer. Lincoln's love for the season is all things dino so he had a blast! It is so fun as a mom to see their little imaginations come alive! He thought they were all real!
They had this one in the main entrance... it growled once and Gracie fell apart! (as I'm typing this... she saw the picture and said, "Oh no! Scary Dinosaur!" and ran away... )
Here he is when he saw the first one in the water! Can you see the joy on his little face?
I was amazed at how many of the dinosaurs Lincoln could name! I haven't taught him any... maybe his daddy has. We turned the corner and he said, "Look Mom! A stegasaurus!"
I was surprised Lily got as close as she did! She looked pretty worried the whole time we were there...
Lincoln and Daisy were the most fun to watch.... they were so animated and excited the whole time!
Gracie was pretty afraid of all of them... she started to cry if we got to close to them.
They were all too afraid to get close to the T-Rex... so Caprice joined them in a picture!
4 of the kiddos lined up on a dinosaur for a picture... none of them wanted to look at the camera!
Lincoln thought this dinosaur was especially cool because she had eggs hatching right next to her!
They had a 'touch' exhibit as well where you could touch the stringrays. The kids loved playing in the water. I even got to touch one!
Gracie got pretty silly after we ate our lunch... Lincoln wouldn't sit with her on their favorite turtle...
Graham had a great time chilling in the stroller with his railroad cap!
