ohio

Asher and I arrived in Cincinnati around 4 pm on Monday. It ended up being about a nine and a half hour drive. We only stopped once for lunch. Asher was surprisingly good on the drive. He probably only slept about 90 minutes of the drive and the rest just played in his car seat. He is a great kid.

Tuesday we headed out to the zoo. If you look closely in the picture below you can see an alligator. For some reason, Asher just laughed and laughed every time he looked at the alligators.

We rode the train around the zoo. The kids loved it.



We spent time in the petting zoo. Asher was not the least bit afraid.



In fact, he even got a little too friendly with this goat and gave its fur a good yank and ended up scaring the goat.




I highly recommend the Cincinnati Zoo. It was super kid friendly and they had workers everywhere with snakes, lizards, birds, etc...for the kids to touch and interact with.

Today we spent a leisurely day at home and the pool. 



Asher was exhausted after the pool. Stacey and I ran to the store and Asher passed out on Uncle Danny.


The fun continues tomorrow.

You are such a trooper driving that far alone! How fun though to meet up with the fam. I have a friend that lives in Ohio and loves that zoo. I don't know, Devry, looks like a pretty hot day to me! :) Good thing you chose the pool on day 2!

Asher is looking so grown up lately. I remember when Asher was just two weeks old Uncle Danny came to visit. He was so calm and confident handling that little Asher guy. Obviously Asher still feels protected and safe with Uncle Danny.

Wonderful photos, looking forward to seeing more.
