Off to the Omaha Zoo

For our last day with KaKa, we decided to go an a great adventure to Omaha to go to the Zoo.  Being 8 months pregnant with two kids already, it is a challenge to have the energy to keep up with the kids all day and do a special adventure.  Danny and I thought that we should take advantage of Kelsey's extra hands, eyes, and energy and make this special trip!  It was great!

We had never been to Nebraska -- but we are sure that we will take the 2 hour trip again to see this zoo and do some of the other things that Omaha has to offer.


The girls LOVED exploring with Kelsey!

This looks real.... but it wasn't!  I'm not sure Grace is THAT brave!
No, Hannah is not having a Time Out... we thought it was cute to make it look like she was caged. (We did think about caging her a few times.. it would have been easier!)
One of their favorite things was the Merry-Go-Round.  Hannah kept crying, "Whoa!" every time the horse went up in the air!  Too cute..
After that we headed to the Barnyard where the highlight was the goats!
She is just like her Auntie KK... talking to the animals!  :)
"Hi.  I'm Grace.  What is your name, goat?"
Another highlight was the butterfly garden... some of the butterflies even landed on us!  So cool!
Penguins!
...a swing bridge from the jungle!

There were MANY more pictures and memories.... it was a great day even though the heat was incredible.

  1. We love, love, love the Omaha zoo. I remember going when I was pregnant with Naomi (no other kids yet) and I thought I had to sit a lot. I bet you were super tired! Great pictures, too! What kind of camera do you have?
