The Zoo

The day before Easter, Liliah and I headed to the zoo. We have never went to their Easter Egg hunt. It was a last minute idea I had on my Friday lunch hour.  The weather we were having in our area was unbelievable and rarely happens this time of year.  We discovered that everyone else had the same idea!  It was still lots of fun and everyone was in a good mood with the warm weather :)  

The zoo tossed out empty eggs and the kids got to fill up the basket with as much as they want, then go dump the empty eggs in a bin for reuse for the next group and were given a goody when we left the park.  It was so funny, Liliah filled up her backpack and then said, okay, I have enough!  We spent some time watching the new lion cubs and the elephants.  

We had a picnic lunch (love how she instinctively sits!), she loved doing cartwheels on the trampoline, running up and down the hills and riding the carousel.  

On the way home, she thanked me for taking her to the zoo and that she had a good time - melt my heart!  I am soaking up all my one-on-one time with her before Miah joins us.  I am mindful that things will change with two kiddos.  It will be good, but different.  Liliah has certainly made motherhood such a pleasure and rather easy-breasy.
