Aunt Cami's Visit

We were so glad Camille came to visit us for a week in June!  She played with the kids a lot and helped Rachel around the house.  It was so nice to have her visit! We had a lot of fun.

 Here she is meeting Sylvia for the first time.

Aunt Cami and Sylvia became fast friends.

This picture was taken after we went shopping.  Andrew shopped till he dropped.

Buddies!

We had nice weather most of the time.  It did thunderstorm in the evenings so we weren't able to do some of our plans (like the outdoor concert and swimming because the pool was closed).

But it was fun just hanging out together. 

Andrew liked to type on Aunt Cami's computer or as he calls it, "mu-num-ma-num".

Sunday nap time. 

We went to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and had a blast!

Andrew was nervous of the animals at first.  Especially the giraffes because they got so close to him!

He loved the meercats.  I think he thought they were cats because he kept meowing.

Andrew liked the statues of animals almost as much as the actual animals.

The elephant exhibit was the coolest because it overlooked all of Colorado Springs.  Here Andrew is watching the elephant use its trunk to pick up food and put it in its mouth.  He learned a lot at the zoo.  He also learned how to say lion which sounds like, "ooien".

Andrew and Aunt Cami at the elephant exhibit! Sylvia is sleeping in the stroller.  She slept most of the visit and missed the fact that we were at the zoo. 

Adventure is out there!

In the Australia world, the peacocks and wallabies roamed free.

There's a wallaby!

Andrew loved watching the alligators.  He thought they were cool.

But he may have liked the statue more...

Watch out for the teeth!

In the primate house, the cutest thing ever was the tiny baby ape that was peeking out of the hammock where it was supposed to be resting with its mom.  The little baby reminded us of Sylvia when her hair is messy.

A moose!

We took a break to eat some pb and j, grapes, and drink some water.  It was a hot day!  It started sprinkling right as we were leaving so our visit was perfectly timed. 

We also visited the splash pad while Cami was here.  We loved having Camille come stay with us and hope she had fun and comes to visit again soon.  We love you Aunt Cami!!!!!
