The zoo. A nirvana for the senses for the little people. Zoo’s are pretty much kids’ idea of heaven on earth, because they can yell and run (right?? it’s not just our kids that act wild) and see all sorts of creatures. They can’t pet them though…our kids were a bit disappointed in that aspect of the zoo.
The wild things.
Don’t they know there are children watching?? Avert your eyes, little ones, this is National Geographic in action. 😉
*****
Dudes…can you see an escape route that way??
No, dude, nothing this way.
Nadda over here, dude. Just lots of people saying, “Oh, cute!”
Okay, Dudes…look cute…maybe they will let us out!
*****
Man, it’s hot. Maybe if we huddle together and lay on each other we will cool off.
No one said that Prairie Dogs were smart.
*****
Hey, did someone say look cute?! Severe cuteness factor right here, baby!
You ain’t got nothin’ on me baby Meerkat. I’m so much cuter! I’m positively oozing cuteness, Dude.
*****
Why don’t you both come over here. I can decide which one of you tastes…err…IS cuter. Heh, heh, heh. *drool, drool*
*****
Uhhhh…no thanks. *shudder* I’m going to take a nap in the nest with my homies.
*****
Dudes…I am totally cuter than all of you.
You know what? I think he’s right. 😉

What wildness do you have to share this week? 🙂
I LOVE your photos! So rich and beautiful. And yes, your little guy is definitely the cutest!
I actually have one to share! Yay! The cutest sea otter taking a breather:

And sometimes when my little one does things like this, I have to wonder if she’s from the wild:

Great shots Stacy! And what a perfect ending shot of the little man – he is so handsome!

Great photos! I love going to the zoo. My pics are from our vacation.

The turtles always seem to be doing it when we go to the zoo as well. Maybe they are just randy by nature! Love the glasses!
Here’s my wildlife this week, straight from my yard!
Wow your shots are amazing. Mine stink this week.

I LOVE the last shot!! SO CUTE!! ha ha ha. Certainly a wild man on your hands. lol
Ohhhh I have the perfect photo for this!!!

LOL Your captions are awesome this week! 🙂 I smiled the whole time…And that last one…LOL he’s always cuter than anything else (besides maybe his sister – and um my own kids yeah that’s the ticket!)
We got involved in some wild life, though not as much as I had hoped – I had great dreams of heading to the butterfly gardens but alas! Our baby birdies will have to do!

You sure captured the moment with the turtles. 😉
Sometimes I think it’s hard not to capture a good picture at the zoo. There is so much going on. Now trying to get the kid on in front of the camera I’ve discovered is a bigger challenge.
So here’s my tribute to the zoo. 🙂

I felt like I was right there with you guys at the zoo. You have some really amazing shots.
Mine are also from the zoo, but I took mine about a month ago.

Dude – he totally is! 🙂 Although as you know, I am pretty partial to meerkats, and baby ones at that! Very fun, very wild time!
As I was composing last night we lost power…I still had battery on my laptop, but no router to upload my photos! By the time it came back on, I was already asleep…but I did get my wild photos up finally…

Such cute pictures! I love the meerkats. They’re always my favorite when we go the Wild Animal Park. And, your son looks a little “wild” with his cool shades on as well! 🙂
Here’s my little bit of wildlife.

LOVE these captions!!! The prairie dogs on guard…you are killing me!!!!
I’ve finally dragged up a Theme Thursday!

I would love the meerkats (how come it’s spelled with a “K”?) They’re so cute. Kai is the cutest.
Here’s mine:

a wee bit late today, but here it is…

OMG this totally cracked me up. The pictures are great but the subtitles are to die for!
Here are mine for the day. I totally wanted to post my humping dolphin photo inspired by your tortoises but I spared the world that visual!
http://www.steppingonlegos.com/photography/theme-thursday-wildlife/
Lovely shots! I ADORE the zoo as much as the kids do and this was FANtastic!
Yep, I think Kai’s got it right.
Love your commentary, hehe!
And, umm, no, your kids are not the only ones with a wild sreak a mile wide.
Ha! The turtle shot made me laugh, as did your words.

Great photos. Those little guys are so photogenic…so is your son! My sister in law asked me to go to the zoo tomorrow with her and the kids. I am looking forward to it. Ella will be able to have fun with her cousins and should be thoroughly exhausted by the end of the day. Not sure about the weather. Fingers crossed!
Late – those are so fun – love the wildlife and wildfun you have displayed.
I’m really late and frazzled – here is mine.

LOL…do you know how I try to avoid the sex subject? But can’t. The words sex and hot chick come up often at my house. *sigh and grunt*
This post is absolutely adorably real. And yes, K is so the cutest.
I missed Thursday but my post is up on Friday.

Oh I love these! I’m sorry to have missed yesterday… I’ll be back next week, though! (If the weekend forecast of storms don’t knock me out of internet again!)
Wow, what cuties!
love your story line!!! cute.
Catching up, and I would say the sunglass photo is in my top ten of K. He has so much personality coming thru his photos now!
