Up the stairs and to the ZOO!

There was a chance of rain today but we decided to risk it and head to the National Zoo, a chance of rain is better than 90 degrees and humid. As Mommy was packing up Ava decided she wanted to help and headed up the stairs.

Up until this point she would just stand at the bottom but today up she went. Daddy followed her up and she made it all the was to the top!
We headed out to the zoo. It only took about 20 minutes to get there, Ava took a quick nap on the way and about 10 minutes to find a parking spot on a side street. As we park David Wheeler, one of Mommy's work friends happened to walk past. He lives about a block from where we park but it was just complete luck that he was walking down the street where we parked.




Ava loved the zoo and looking at all of the people. Her favorite animals were the Apes and the Armadillo. This trip is one of the great things about living in DC. A great family day absolutely FREE!
