She happily asked her son, "Harv, where are we?!" to which he replied: "At the zoo, the safari park."
Katie continued: "Safari! With all the kids? Are we excited?! Woo hoo!"
As her other children could be heard whooping in the back, Harvey replied: "Oh yeah!"

Katie's family day out came just two days after Harvey sent her a lovely message from his residential care home.
The mum-of-five made the difficult decision for her son to live in residential care during the week earlier this year.
Harvey has Prader-Willi Syndrome, is partially sighted and also struggles with septo-optic dysplasia, which affects his growth.
He now lives an hour away from Katie on weekdays, returning home on weekends and during the school holidays.

"I'll Sure see you soon Mummy love from Harvey."
He also sent a picture of himself taken outdoors and added a sweet love heart.

His condition makes him crave food and doctors have warned he is at serious risk of a heart attack if he does not lose weight urgently.

"It’s a cruel illness. He feels hungry all the time,” Katie told The Sun in November.
“Every time I feed him, it’s killing him."
Doctors have reportedly said that Harvey needs to lose around 10st. He has already managed to shed 2st, bringing his weight to 27st.
