Our first trip to the zoo this year:):)

As you can see, if you look back through our blog, we LOVE the St. Louis zoo...if you have never been-it is a must:):) Mia, Shane and I headed down to the zoo after a great 5K run in our new hometown that morning (Shane even placed 1st in his age group:)  The zoo was busy, but we still managed to see the hippos, the rhinos and the elephants-Mia loved them all.  Then we decided to pet the stingrays and the sharks at a special exhibit-it was pretty cool-even Mia could do it!  Then, we finished off the trip with a merry-go-round ride and a picnic in Forest Park!  Cannot wait to go back:)

Ready to go!!

Checking out the rhino

Mia loved the fishies...

and was in for a big surpise when the hippo swam right by her:):) 
SHE LOVED THE HIPPO!

Mommy...see the baby elephant?  Can we take him home??

Checking out the bears...

Petting the sting rays and sharks-it was pretty cool:)
