One photo, taken from behind, showed 32-year-old Zach holding hands with two of his young children Jackson and Lilah.
Tori captioned the sweet picture: “First outing as a family since @zroloff07’s surgery!!”
She confirmed that they were at the zoo when she shared an adorable snap of Jackson and Lilah sitting in a wagon with their younger brother Josiah.
Tori shared various pictures of the kids checking out the animals and grinning as they enjoyed the day out with their parents.
Once they were back at home, the brunette uploaded a couple of sweet shots of Zach and Jackson spending some quality time together.
In one post, Tori revealed that five-year-old Jackson was wearing his shirt back to front.
And in a separate caption, she confirmed that they were ‘building a shop’ on their land.
The basic inner structure of a building could be seen in the background as several workmen laid the foundations for the couple’s latest business venture.

“We’re building a shop!! Sorry I guess I haven’t said that!” Tori told her 1.9 million Instagram followers.
The post comes just one week after Zach found himself in the hospital having emergency brain surgery.
On Thursday 9 February, Tori opened up to her friends and followers about what was happening.
“Not exactly how we saw our week going,” Tori confessed on Instagram. “Zachary had emergency shunt revision this morning.”
A shunt is a hollow tube surgically placed in the brain – sometimes in the spine – that helps drain cerebrospinal fluid and redirects “it to another location in the body where it can be reabsorbed,” according to John Hopkins Medicine.
Shunt procedures address the pressure on the brain – which could be caused by hydrocephalus – and assist with relieving many symptoms, such as gait difficulty, mild dementia, and lack of bladder control.
Tori continued: “It’s been a scary 72 hours but he is doing well and recovering!!”
GIVING THANKS
Tori then went on to thank family and friends for their positive thoughts and prayers.
“Thank you so much to everyone for the prayers that you have covered us in. We feel them!” she exclaimed. “We are so incredibly blessed by our neurosurgeon team and their attentiveness to Zach’s needs!
“Thank you to our friends and family who have all reached out asking to help. We feel so loved and supported by you.
“Also shout out to @amyjroloff for holding down the fort and playing hide n seek for who knows how many hours.
“I’m here praying that Zach’s recovery is quick and easy and that this will be our answered prayers to relieving his migraines!
“You’re a freaking bad a**, Zach. You just had brain surgery… and handled it like a rockstar. I’m so proud of you.”
