Mother's Day at the Zoo

This Mother's Day we traveled to the Brevard County Zoo and Ethan got to spend the day with Grandma. It was a two hour drive there so it was Ethan's first two-hour road trip. Of course he didn't sleep on the way there. We were able to get two full hours at the zoo before he began acting out.

He was still in his soccer outfit from practice earlier in the morning. The clothes worked for the park because it was hot and those clothes kept him comfortable.

 

Ethan liked the little kid window to see the meerkats. 

The windows let him watch the meerkats while they stayed out of the sun. 

 

 Here he is at the entrance looking at the statue of a hippo.

Ethan's favorite part of the park is the giraffe feeding. He got to feed a few pieces of lettuce to the giraffes. Sorry for no pictures of the feeding I was too busy holding him up. 

Ice cream break on a hot day. 

The stroller is more of a cargo carrier these days.

He likes pushing the stroller, not riding in it. 

After the zoo, we all went to a restaurant for early dinner. Ethan was playing with cars on the table and spilled ice tea everywhere when drinks were brought out. At least we all got to spend time together :)
