I decided to dedicate an entire "Part 2" post of our New Mexico trip to our Monday adventure to the Albuquerque/ Rio Grande zoo. It was alot of fun and we got some great pictures of Bella being silly, so I didn't want it to get over-shadowed by all the other details of the trip.
We were suppose to meet at the zoo around 9:30-ish, but we were SOOO late! We had driven in from Gallup pretty late the night before (see previous post), and we were all exhausted. Bella had been waking about 7am, but this day she decided to sleep in until 9am. Who am I to wake a sleeping baby??? Plus, I was tired too! :)
Anyway, we got there super late to meet up with Gma & Gpa, Aunt Krissy, and the Meeks (Kristin's eventual in-laws). One of Bella's favorite things was feeding the fish & ducks in the pond, and she loved it so much that she did it twice.
Next up were the peacocks, which were just wildly roaming the grounds. Bella loved watching them until they got a little too close for her comfort. We watched the male peacock spread his wings and do a bird dance trying to attract the nearby female.
We ventured to the zebra exhibit and noticed one was VERY pregnant. No one could decide if they are black with white stripes OR white with black stripes...hmm, the jury is still out.
And what zoo visit can be complete without Bella's lion impression? It's the best in the land!

What a fun trip! The ache in my heart from the lack of Bella in my life tells me I need to book a flight to Houston STAT!
That was such a fun day. I'm so glad you caught her wonderful lion impression on camera! She just looked SO cute that day, and I'm glad we were all able to get together like that (and the two little ones got to meet each other)!
