The zoo

I don't know if I was feeling especially brave or if I had temporay amnesia about all of our summer outings but I had the day off and I decided to take the kids to the zoo. By myself. Ya, well, that was a joke. First thing we did was the train and that went really well...

...Until we got off and Owen started crying he wanted back on. He really loves trains. I finally got him distracted just in time for Ian to start crying. And crying. And screaming. And crying. Honestly, I felt like we were on display at the zoo. People literally stopped to watch Ian throwing a fit. I tried to ignore them but it really was upsetting to me. We lasted 2 hours and then I loaded everyone up and went home.
