we moved!

We got to St. Louis on saturday afternoon. Ben had me call in an order to a bbq place on the way to our new apartment. It was a really tasty lunch, but crazy trying to get in that place to pick up the order. I had to shove through a line of people, and everyone was pushing right back. My mom was here for a few days helping with the kids and getting us settled in. She flew home monday afternoon, and I'll bet she's glad to be home after 3 weeks with my crazy kids.
We went house hunting on sunday, and narrowed our list down a bit. We are going again to see a few places on saturday. But for now we are in an apartment building across the highway from the zoo. Ben and I took Kara and Kiersten on sunday to see about half of it, and my mom and I took the girls again on monday. It is a really big zoo. We still haven't seen all the animals, as it was ridiculously crowded both times we went. I didn't realize this week is spring break, and this was the first really warm weekend here. So hopefully next week we can try going again, and it wont be so crazy. I took a few pictures the first day at the zoo. This first picture is Kara and Kiersten hanging out in our new apt.

They have huge elephants there!

that was the only spot she wanted to stand. I tried to get her to move to the front, but I think someone else was waiting for a picture, and she felt intimidated.

I was wondering what the animal is that has zebra like stripes. Hopefully it won't be so crowded after spring break.
