The hospital that Delaney was born at sent us an offer for a FREE three month membership to the Phoenix Zoo. It was a gift for her 1st birthday. We don't get out to the zoo much because it's on the opposite side of town. So this was perfect! I was looking forward to having a good time and taking lots of pictures, but it was so HOT. I knew that it was going to be 93 degrees outside, but I had hoped that it wouldn't be that bad. Pushing a stoller up those hills with the sun beating down on you is miserable. Most of the animals were hiding because of the heat. We made the most of it though and I do believe that the kids had a pretty good time.
Kierstin, Delaney and Jordan before we were all nasty and sweaty. It's so hard to get a good picture of the three of them these days. Love this picture.
Kierstin enjoyed playing on the fake animals since all the real ones were hiding.
We did visit the petting zoo. Jordan loves animals. He'd save all the animals in the world if he could.
They had a really cute playground for the little ones. Delaney loved the cow. I think she'll enjoy this playground more in a few months when she's a little older and a better walker.
Hanging out in the barn. She points at everything these days.
The kids spent the majority of our time playing in the cavern. This was a really cool splash pad that included a cave and slides. It was nice to cool off for a bit.
This is Jordan inside the cave.
Delaney was not quite as interested in playing in the water. I think it was moslty because there were so many kids running around. Too much chaos for her. Kierstin had a good time though.
We will be going back before my membership expires. Thankfully cooler temperatures are just around the corner for us. So hopefully next time the animals will come out and say HI.
