Family Trip to NC Zoo!!

Rob and I decided to take Taylor to the Zoo this morning for a family outing. We now know the perfect time of day to go is early in the morning, right when the Zoo opens. We got there around 9 am this morning and stayed until 12 or so. It was great at that time as it wasn't too hot yet and there weren't that many people around either. As we were leaving there were bus loads of people walking in right in the heat of the day! We timed it just right for sure. I think Taylor's favorite animal of the day was the gorilla. She did not want to leave that exhibit at all. She just sat by the glass watching all of the gorilla's eat and walk around.

Taylor really likes to be around other people. If we did run into a group or a family she would turn around and start walking with them or towards their direction. She would go right back to same animal exhibit we were looking at and act like she was "with that group"...of course she would tell Rob and I to "come on" too as she walked their way :)

Taylor was swinging like this little girl next to her and not wanting to leave the Lion exhibit

"Look Mommy Look"--I hear that ALL the time :)

Look what hatched..a sweet little Taylor!!!

We all had a great time and look forward to going back...we got to see most of the animals that interested us except for the Bears. That will be one of the first stops next visit.
