On Friday, we went to the Fresno zoo and got lucky with a break in the rain! We didn't have the stroller with us, so Ayden had to hoof it around the zoo for the first time. Because it had been rainy, we pretty much had the zoo to ourselves, which was great!
This has to be one of the best zoos we've been to for little kids. There were spots for Ayden to see at his level at all of the exhibits, we didn't hardly have to pick him up at all.
Not having a nap caught up to him as we were leaving...we enjoy these cuddly moments because they don't happen too often.
I'm going to try to get a video of Ayden talking about what he saw at the zoo. It's hilarious what he remembers about it!
On Saturday, we headed the other direction and drove to San Jose to visit the Children's Discovery Museum. It was so fun - I wish we had a place like this closer to us! There were areas for pretend play, things to climb on - even a real fire truck & ambulance, a "pizzeria" to make your own pizzas, and much more! I took a ton of pictures and it was hard to narrow them down....unfortunately the lighting wasn't very good so the pictures didn't turn out that great, but you can see how much fun we had.

Mirrors!

The bubbles were a big hit!

...and changing his shirt after he got soaked in the water play area!
Ayden was excited to open his Valentine's Day present from Grandma Newton. We enjoyed our present from her too....she babysat so we could go out to a movie and dessert!

That is Chaffee zoo right? It is really nice and worth the drive. That museum is awesome too. Looks like you guys had a blast. Bummer on not being able to go camping but looks like you made up for it. I can't wait to see the video!! Did you get the mail from us??
