Fall Zoo Day

A couple weekends ago we had the PERFECT fall day for the zoo! We spent a lot of time in the monkey house (perhaps a fitting place for Ava) watching all the different monkeys. They were very active. In fact, we were standing at the glass in one of the side viewing areas and a monkey the size of Ava ran up to her window and slapped its hand on the glass right in front of her face. I think it startled her a little, but she thought it was pretty cool. We hadn't taken pictures by the baby gorilla statue in awhile and figured we better stop since Gianna was awake!

 Ava was very much into the reptiles for this zoo trip! I love that each visit this year she's been asking to see different types of animals so we always explore a different part of the zoo.
 The turtle was catching a ride on the back of the alligator.
 These snakes were a hit.
 We got some nice pictures together before our picnic lunch.
 Ava finally decided that going on an animal on the carousel is much more fun than sitting on the bench.
