Monkey See, Monkey Do, Mommy's monkey goes to the zoo





We took Tanner to the zoo for the first time last week so that he could come eye to eye with some monkeys! We had a great time as a family and enjoyed getting to spend the day with Daddy! It was definitely a hot day, but the zoo had lots of indoor spots to cool down along the way so it wasn't too bad. We bought Tanner a monkey backpack to wear that has a leash on it so he could walk around without running off to far from us. Yes, I put a leash on my son! I felt a little weird at first, but it was the best thing ever! He was happy getting to walk freely and we were not chasing him all over the place -- WIN WIN :-) Plus, he looked really cute in it as you can tell from the pics! A must have item for a curious lil monkey like Tanner. We will definitley be going back, but once the weather is a bit cooler!

I love the Dallas Zoo. I think we're getting a yearly pass for Christmas so we'll go all the time. Looks like you guys and Tanner had a great time!

Love the leash idea...that is a great way to let them walk and not have to worry. I'm so getting one of those!
