Zoo Time

I have not posted in many, many months. Mainly because I have been super busy at work and making ZERO time for me and the things I like to do which happens to be blogging. But I'm here and ready to go.
An affordable, fun activity you can do with your children is the LA ZOO. Last week Kyky and I took some time out and went to the zoo. Who knew it was so cheap. Regular price 17 for adults and 12 for Kids but there are several coupons online I found that the app/website retailmenot had great deals. I think the best deal was 20 percent off plus 5 dollars off membership. There may be other great deals through your job or at Ralph's but make sure you check around first.
Well Kyky and I enjoyed our trip to the zoo. She kept begging to see the monkeys and when we did, it was not a BIG deal anymore. She wanted to take pictures of the animals so I would help her with my iPhone and let her take the pictures of the animals, but Kyky is at the stage in her life where she says, "I can do it, I can do it," and wants absolutely no assistance from me. After a long fight and Kyky getting very frustrated that her pictures were not coming out right she allowed me to help her.
Overall we had a great evening until we left and a bee stung her right in the lip. I pulled the stinger out rushed her to first aid they gave her an ice pack and told me to watch her. I now know Kyky is not allergic to bees (yayyyy) but I was freaking out the whole time because her lip was huge.
We had a great time. I was able to save some money and my baby was able to see the "monkeys."
