Lowry Park Zoo

Instead of hitting the stores, we decided to spend our day after Thanksgiving walking off our turkey at Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo. I have been wanting to take the girls there since July (hugely pregnant) and I was so excited to finally go!!!

The girls were very excited!






Both of my girls are getting braver!! They reached right into the sting ray tank and touched them without hesitation. Savannah kept referring to the sting rays as steering wheels :)




As we attempted to feed the fish, we were ambushed by a bunch of birds. They were very smart. One even stuck his beak into the food dispenser to eat the remaining crumbs!!



Owen did wonderfully for being in a stroller/car seat most of the day. He spent what little time I held him checking out the surroundings and spitting up all over my shirt. He and I were wet for the majority of the day.



We also stopped in the Aviary and fed the lorikeets.




Savannah as always felt right at home with the farm animals!


About 2:30 it started to rain so we decided to head home. But not without stopping in the gift shop so the girls could spend the money Uncle Mark and Aunt Liz so graciously gave them yesterday.


Savannah, my impulsive one (and the one who has a significant sweet tooth),  opted for the huge lolipop while Kate, my practical one, chose a toy she could play with for a long time!!! I love my girls!
