At The Zoo

Dexter at home starts getting super excited when he sees animals on tv.  Usually dogs, or the randomest creatures.  Well, Dex at the zoo means he's almost hyperventilating.  We took him to the Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake City.

First animal, the elephants!

As tall as the giraffes.

 He was so excited for the first 1.5 hours.  Then cause of missed naps he kind of just got tired and didn't even care when we walked by.

See their tired faces?

We continued onto the second part of the trip.  I got to go to Ikea!  Woohoo!  I had two items I wanted to get.  A desk for me, and some toy storage containers.

But not in pink.

We put them together, and I love them so far.  Dexter's toys have a spot, instead of storage boxes that he destroyed by him.  Anyways, by the time we finished shopping at Ikea he was a very cranky kid, and finally fell asleep right as we started turning onto our street.

Knocked out.

Friday we did quite a bit of shopping.  Dexter got a new carseat.  He outgrew the little baby bucket thing.  Then I got to go update my wardrobe a bit.  Found a few pairs of pants, shirts and other things.

We had a visitor stop by for a short time.  Dexter followed him all around.

Kyle did start up work again.  He was a little sad that he couldn't sleep in anymore, but I'm happy that he comes home around 5 every day.  It's been a good week so far.
