Zoo with the friend and the nephews

So I'm the one without kids and I go with a friend and our nephews to the zoo.  My friend also doesn't have kids so it makes for an interesting day.  

We had a 5 year old and a 2 year old plus a stroller and a wagon.  Who brings that much crap to the zoo.  We do and not sure why,  Oh wait my friend gave in and got the wagon.  Half the time I'm chasing 2 kids and  pulling and pushing the wagon and stroller.  The other half I'm trying to control the kids pushing and pulling the stroller and wagon.  Not an easy task for a 44 year old who is with her friend who has no clue what is going on.  Like walking in a shop and forgetting I'm right behind him with a stroller.  Hello, hold the door.  Yep, it's been like that for the past 20 plus years.

When I wasn't chasing both I was with the 2 year old, while he was talking about all the trash cans over the zoo and wanting to be in the wagon.  That kid liked the trash cans and wagon the best out of all the animals at the zoo.  What the heck kid there a ton of animals and you'd rather throw out my water bottle that's half full.  I;ms just glad he wasn't trying to throw my water bottle in the monkey cage.

But it was fun and the kids won't remember that it was warm out and they ate cheerios and ice cream for lunch.  They will remember the trash cans, the wagon, and all the running we did over the zoo.
