OKC Zoo ~Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

My husband needed to go to OKC for work for three days so we decided to join him for a few of them.

We had not been to the OKC Zoo in a while so we stopped there first after dropping him off.

Those water bottles were in their mouths 90% of the time…

We basically go to the zoo to sit on animal statues.

Do they have an animal statue zoo?

That would probably be a big hit.

The zookeeper tried but could not get any birds to go on “M”.

Lots of little fingers were pecked.

Ha

It was a pretty hot day(in the 90’s) but the kids drank a lot of water and they had misting stations everywhere.

The twins favorite thing to do at zoo’s is feed fish.

Thankfully this zoo had fish feeders like the Tulsa zoo.

I feel like the Giant Anteater should be something in a star wars movie.

So odd looking.

The misting station was making her hair look white since the little droplets were just sitting on top of her hair.

Snakes!

I really like their Oklahoma exhibits.

It helps the kids know what animals we have in our state.

The girls liked the prairie dogs.

This boy likes to read every sign.

He reminds me of the robot in Short Circuit.

“Need input”

This bear was sprawled out on the glass, to keep cool I would assume.

I was reminded why I don’t go often alone with five kids but we survived!

That’s the important thing.

The Zoo or “I can’t find the pictures for the other post.”

*Updated with pics of Little Bit

azooDSC_0294 azooDSC_0314  I was going to do a school post but lost the pictures.

I usually keep them organized by month and subject but I must have been lazy and put them in the wrong folder…

I take way too many pics to be lazy like that.

They have now disappeared into a black hole and I may never do a post on what books we read for the middle ages.

So instead, I am sharing zoo pictures.

This Rhino decided to go around their barriers to get to the ornamental grass they had growing.

The plus side was we got to see him REALLY close!

You know it is hot when I buy one of those icey drinks…

It was nice but I wish they had fruit flavors.

So if you read this Tulsa Zoo, please at fruit juice to your list.

Thank you.

Ha!

climb swiming

This bear looked like he was using his floaty as a kick board.

Appropriate since the boys are taking swimming lessons every day.

I will be really excited when they end in a few weeks by the way!

I am not programmed to get kids all out the door every morning.

Also, I consider summer to be my break…

Update!!!

I found my missing pics.

They were on my other camera.

Carry on.
