Fun at the Zoo

We spent our Labor day at the Waco Zoo today. It was HOT but we had a great time! Chase made friends very easily there. His first friends were the tiny monkeys (for lack of the technical term):

His favorite friend was what he called the "dinosaur," but was actually some sort of dragon (again, lacking the technical term... Brian says he thinks it was a "komodo" dragon):

The dragon was seriously interested in Chase. They followed each other around the cage for awhile. He then had to have his photo taken on the giant "dinosaur:"

Chase is going through this mega "I want to do everything all by myself" phase. Today he had to pull his own wagon, which made us look like slave driver parents:

Toward the end of our trip there was this cool play area for kids and Chase had a blast on the coolest sidewalk chimes I have ever seen (Facebook viewers, click "View Original Post" to see this video):

There was also a cool section where you could swing on ropes, and though Chase wasn't quite ready for the swinging part, he loved to throw them around!

(He seriously could have stayed there forever!)

I hope everyone had a nice Labor Day! There are more photos in our Photo Album if you're interested.

There really needs to be a 'Great Big Lizard Alert' at the top of this post. I am going to have nightmares - those things freak me out! Chase is awesome, but seriously, I can't even look at those pictures. Yikes!! =)
