Week 35 - Northwest Trek

On July 3rd we headed out to Northwest Trek with Shannon, Paisley, Delaynie, Grammy, Austin, and Jordan. The weather was not great but the animals were out in full force. I should have brought a warmer blanket for Henry, but I didn't. As a substitute I put my sweater on him and his sun hat to keep him a little warmer. He looked like a hobo but such is life.

Delaynie pushing Henry all by herself

"I do it I do it I do it!"

Paisley watching the raccoon. They were Olympic athlete animals scaling the trees

Delaynie watching the raccoons as well, they might have been playing or fighting or in love at one point.

I could live at this zoo, it reminds me of camping and smells so good

Seriously he looks nuts.

Sleeping Otter

The beaver doing swimming stunts for P and D.

Cute little guy huh?

The kids with the beaver

Delyanie watching the beavers foot and tail

Seriously look how big these cuties are getting? I wish I had their hair

  

Watching the otter eat his carrots wrapped in corn husks.

Milly the millipede, not to be confused with a catepillar.

Watching the Milly walk, they squat so cute

I tried to sit the same way but couldn't get up...

Making fancy pennies with Aunt Jordan, Paisley made a bear

Delaynie an Eagle

She loved her special penny

Laughing a bit hysterically from tiredness and all the fresh moist air.  

Aunt Jordan also "paint the nails" on Delaynie and Paisley

Mom and Henry waiting to hop on the tram. Don't mind the various animals parts in the background, totally normal and not gross at all.

Playing Peek-a-boo or hiding from Henry, I can't remember which one.

Henry you are a Rockstar

  

Learning about antlers, bison vs buffalo, etc. Soaking it all up

And then the rain came pouring down. I had just sat down to nurse Henry and the rain came pouring down. This Seattle girl doesn't mind it one bit 

D wanted to rain dance and she did

Touching animal pelts while mom got the car. The otter was very soft

And Delaynie didn't want to wear shoes.

Quick trip to Costco and Henry's first time riding in the cart not in a car seat. He loved it and squealed the whole way through the store. He was one happy boy. People waved at him and he squealed in return.

  

No pictures please

The lights!
