Erik had a week of vacation recently, and instead of spending money we don't have, we took the budget-and-kid friendly option of staying home. We figured there was plenty to do right here and then our kids could still get naps. Top of our list: the zoo. We've had a membership for 6 months now, but Erik's still never gone with us. For Christmas, "Morgan" gave him the gift of all the extra things at the zoo, like camel riding, the carousel, and feeding the giraffes. And somehow that meant that she got to do it all too.

| At the squirrel monkey exhibit, where you walk into their habitat. It was early and there were no crowds, so they were all over the place. |

| Riding Isaac the camel |

| Morgan was not really sure this was a bonus |
 |
| Sam handled it with his usual aplomb |
Other activities that didn't merit pictures: shopping at IKEA and eating their meatballs, shopping at the outlet mall, and playing a lot of Candyland. And then came the highly anticipated whirlwind visit from the grandparents, coming next...
