So we packed up and headed to the zoo for the morning. It was a beautiful day and Brayden was so excited to see the lions and tigers...but first we had to stop and watch the carousel.

Mesmerized by the animals going in a circle..who needs real animals?
The next few minutes are kind of a blur, as it all happened so fast...one minute Brayden was chasing a bird, the next he is face down in a small pond! In his defense, the water was covered in a layer of foam and was flush with the ground...I don't think he even knew it was there! However, we were now faced with a major dilemma because I had about 3 other outfits for Caleb, but nothing for Brayden of course!
Wearing Mommy's jacket to stay warm!
Seeing as we had been at the zoo for all of about 5 minutes, leaving was not an option (ok, it was an option, but who wants to see their little boy sad??) So, daddy was off to the gift shop to see what he could find...
Someday we're gonna laugh about this!
Ta Da! Could he be any dorkier?? Love it! The shirt is one of those where the body is on the shirt and then the head is your child's head! Take a moment to appreciate the socks too... now imagine my son running around the zoo, with no shoes (they were soaking too, and luckily we remembered we had another pair in the car!) What a sight :)
After our fiasco, we did manage to see some animals...
So you can bet that we will never again leave the house without a change of clothes for BOTH boys! Lesson learned...the hard way! :)

That's one way to get mom and dad to buy you an awesome zoo t-shirt! I'm sure he planned it from the beginning!
That is hilarious! Way to improvise! Looks like he wasn't phased at all! So cute.. I'm excited to see you all on Saturday!
