Playdate with Papa!

My dad has every other Friday off of work, so Friday January 18th Hudson & I picked Papa up and headed over to the MN Zoo!  I am glad we go there early as we were able to see all of the indoor exhibits before the school groups arrived.

First stop was the Monkey's but since it was a little cold, there were none to be seen outside :(  So we moved on to the penguins where of course my child notices the one penguin that goes #2 and he needs to shout it to me across the exhibit.....  Since we were still bundled up from outside, we decided to check out the MN trail where we were able to see the otters, wolverines, puma, and bald eagle.

After that we headed to the tropics trail to warm up a bit :)

From there we made our way over to Discovery bay to check out the fish.  Hudson's favorite is always the tide pool and waiting for the waves to come in :)  This boy could stand here for hours.

Since it was a bit frigid that day, we were not to keen on walking outside to see the animals so we took the easy way out and went on a monorail ride.  This was Hudson's first time on the "choo choo"

By the time we got done it was about 11AM and baby boy was ready for some lunch.  Instead of eating at the Zoo, we headed over to Panino Brothers in Apple Valley as Papa had never been there before.
