Phillips Zoo

Since it was actually a decent temperature today and still no baby we decided to do something fun with our day. We went to Phillips Zoo in Aurora. It was really nice and had some different animals.
Mommy & Matthew

There were three wolves to see, two white and one black. They were really close to the glass.

Matthew liked this tortoise, we kept following him around.

They had a reptile house with some neat alligators.

There were a lot of butterflies just flying around.

I managed to take this through two layers of chain link fencing. We have a camera with a great zoom. We really wanted Matthew to see this cougar because after the Kane County Cougars game he kept saying that cougars made quiet meow sounds like a house cat. We wanted him to see that they would make a roar because they are big cats.

Daddy & Matthew

Daddy & Matthew with a mastodon skull. There were different mastodon bones on display here because apparently in this area in the 1930's various bones were found from different mastodons.

He was a little hesitant about taking this picture.
