Everything Embry: January 25

Dallas Zoo

Okay, so I may need to go to Dallas Zoo Addicts Anonymous. Last Sunday we decided to go the three of us to the zoo and purchase our zoo pass that my parents gifted us for Christmas! And in the past seven days I've been three times, with plans to meet a group of friends Tuesday! We had a blast the three of us and saw everything!! Like made sure we went by every single exhibit! We were exhausted, but had so much fun!

She is still VERY into her "mailbox" and Mimi mailed her a real postcard...which she carried around for a few days! Including to the zoo!


E was obsessed with reading the map all day.

The most social penguin ever! Followed E around the whole time we were there.






Amazing gorillas


We got to see the chimps being let out in the morning for breakfast! It was SO cool!





Mama chimp and baby Mshindi!

E was nervous to pet the monitor so she asked for Lovey to have him pet it...so cute!





We got to see the giraffes and zebras and elephants all running in a pen together!

You get to get SO close to the giraffes in the feeding area! It's so neat!


Shout out to Aunt Tomi in Australia!

Tuesday when Ruthie, Ford and Mimi were in town we went to the zoo and met my friend Annie and her two little ones! The kids had a ball and took fantastic naps that afternoon- score!

Saturday we got to the zoo again right at opening at 9:00 am and all six of us really enjoyed it! Embry loved it even though she had been three times in a matter of a week! It was a chilly morning, but we all still had fun. A really cool thing was the zoo had a big birthday party for the baby chimp, Mshindi! News cameras were there, they had cupcakes for everyone, etc. It was way too cute!

Mimi, Ruthie, and Ford Visit

Mimi, Ruthie and Ford spent two days in Dallas with us and we went to the zoo, open gym and had a blast. Embry had a hard time sharing her toys with Ford to say the least......but we're working on it ;)

Kiki, E-Pa, and Great G-Pa Visit

Friday afternoon Kiki, E-Pa and Great G-Pa arrived from Austin and Sapulpa to celebrate Kathleen's birthday weekend! Friday we had a pho soup bar here at the house, Saturday we went to the zoo and out for Kathleen's birthday dinner at Cane Rosso! Sunday we went to brunch at a country club with a family friend and stuffed ourselves before everyone got on the road! Such a fun weekend =)

I kept a friends two girls for an hour before MOPS Friday and it was the best ever. The three girls played dolls quietly in the playroom the whole time and I sat on the couch reading! I need to adopt two older girls...hah!
