Camping with Gigi and Babu

Bug had her first "camping" experience last weekend!  She spent the night in a tent with Babu in the backyard.  As far as she's concered, she stayed out there all night, but Gigi ended up picking her up after she fell asleep and brought her inside. She spent the entire time outside playing with water, frogs, balls and bugs.  She roasted hotdogs and marshmellows (but didn't eat any...shocker!)  and had a blast! 

The "before" picture.  Decked out in her preschool clothes.

The "after" picture!  Passed out in her "Diego shorts" (khaki shorts), exhausted, covered in dirt and chocolate. 

Lulu loved visiting the "campground" and can't wait until she's old enough to camp out at Gigi and Babu's too!

It didn't take long for her to strip down and get into her water play.  This girl LOVES playing with water!

If you look closely, you'll see Hailey's newest pet.  A frog that she so cleverly named "Froggie."  I'm shocked that she wasn't afraid of it!  In fact, she loved it and Babu had to set him free because it was inevitably going to die from all of Bug's playing!

I think she likes it!

Uncle Poogie helped Bug check it out. 

Now I think I could handle this kind of camping.  Sleeping on piles of down comforters and watching shows on the Kidle!

Singing, dancing and making smores around the campfire in Babu's hat.   

Something tells me there are going to be a lot more "camping" trips in Bug's future!
