A trip to the zoo

Hello from the Oklahoma City Zoo! This morning, after sleeping in until 7AM and having a hearty breakfast at the hotel restaurant, Christopher was ready to venture out into OKC to see the sights. While Daddy was resting up at the hotel for his big race, we went to see the lions, tigers and bears (oh my!). Let me begin by saying that at the rate Chris is going, he is definitely going to have a job in the future that has to do with animals--perhaps a zoologist or a veterinarian. The boy is happy, no, ecstatic around animals! I think he laughed almost the entire time we were at the zoo. His favorites by far were the sea lion (who was playing peek-a-boo with our little man) and the orangatan who was hanging upside down in the window and knocking on the glass. But CJ is definitely his father's son--he absolutely loved the acquatic center and really didn't want to leave. After seeing so many animals, we decided to take a ride on both the carousel and the train. We had a very fun morning and even decided to forgo a morning nap because we had more important things to do. Here are some more pics from our trip:


And what trip would be complete without a little fun on the swing?
Later this afternoon, we will all be going to the Redman Expo where Daddy is going to check in and drop off his bike for the big race tomorrow. Daddy also has a meeting he has to attend, during which Christopher and I will be checking out triathlon gear for when our little man is ready for his first race. Do you think tri bikes come with training wheels?
