First Trip to the Zoo!

We took Axl on his first trip to the Cincinnati Zoo with Jay and Cindy's families at the end of July. It was unexpectedly rainy, but we still had a great time watching Axl see tons of new animals for the first time. His favorites were definitely in the cat house (despite the terrible smell!).

lovin' from mama
My favorite thing at the zoo are the baby monkeys. They wear diapers and are just altogether adorable. For some reason, the Cincinnati Zoo didn't have monkeys in diapers! I was so mad that Jay decided he'd stand in :)
