In the Zoo

In May 20, we decided to go to the Zoo with the boys. The day looked sunny and nice - so why not show an elephant, a seal, an ice-bear and a lion to the boys? We went with our triplets-buggy, because without it, the boys would have run to 3 different directions.
I had to teach Erik how to be NOT disturbed by the attention we are getting when we go with the triplets-buggy. The tip is very easy: "Don't make eye contact with anyone and just keep on walking." This way, people usually do not have enough courage to come to touch our boys or disturb our normal day-out with the boys. Of course we got a lot of comments, but when you once accept it and don't let yourself disturbed by everyone who walks by, it is just fine.
I think the boys liked animals quite a lot. Unfortunately Tallinn Zoo is very large - area-wise - but didn't have many animals in the cages, yet. Maybe it was still too cold? But at least the boys saw most of the animals we hoped they'll see - an elephant, seal and an ice-bear. We missed a lion though.
It was a nice day. :)

Kas ühel poisil on päiksekad silmade pärast? Kas arst soovitas või ise tundus, et oleks vaja?

Ma ostsin päiksekad ise, Stockmanni hulludelt päevadelt. Poisid kannavad neid aeg-ajalt, kuid kisuvad siiski ruttu peast ära. Loomaaias oli meil ka esialgu kõigil, aga lõpuks jäid ainult ühele. Arst pole meile päiksekatest midagi rääkinud... pole ise ka küsinud.
