Lots of pictures of the backs of the girls' heads

While we were in Wichita last week for a funeral, we took a morning and went to the Sedgwick County Zoo. It was just the girls and I, and I couldn't help feeling very good about the fact that I was doing it by myself. There was a time, when this kind of thing seemed so far in my future, I couldn't see it. Anyway, they did fine. We rented a stroller and took our time seeing all kinds of fun creatures....

Flamingos

Chasing Penguins


I guess I don't need to label all these animals... most of you probably can tell which ones they are. Ha!

Fun Fact: these elephants are named Stephanie and Simba

Everytime I've been to the zoo, this lion has been snoozin'


Apes

This guy is HUGE

Not to be confused with the Bairs...

This is a prairie dog.




And this is what happens after a few hours of running around at the zoo...
