 On the playground at the zoo

 As you can tell Tanner didn't want to sit still for the picture, unlike Kenzie she wanted her picture by everything.

 Ugly!!

 Milking the cow (good thing it was a fake cow, not sure a real one would like 3 kids milking it at the same time!)

 Petting the goat

 Turtle

 Kangaroo

 Feeding the birds

 Aunt Beth is afraid of birds so I took the kids inside so they could feed the birds.

 Taking a ride

We had a great time!  It really tired the kids out!

This was on the ride home!

 We loaded up the kids in mom's minivan and headed to the Detroit Zoo on July 25, 2012.

We went with Julie, Jenna & Jillian.

 The girls couldn't figure out how those kids got in the tubes, we told them we didn't know either!

Ben tired out from all the excitement!

We had a great day and saw lots of animals.  We had great weather and the kids all had fun!  All of them fell asleep on the ride home.

11 months old!

 Benny turned 11 months old on July 24, 2012!  He is getting so big!  He is starting to talk more and can crawl so fast even though it is still army crawling!  He doesn't like to sit still!

So Big!!

Playdate at Partridge Creek

 We had a playdate with Kenzie's friend from preschool, Kaylee on July 24, 2012.

We went to the Mall at Partridge Creek to play in the fountains!

 Kaylee's sister Erin

 They also have a play area for the kids!

Ben came too, although he couldn't play on anything!

He still had fun!
