Memorial Day Camping

Kynlie went on her first camping trip Memorial Day weekend. We got up on Friday and went to the Yellowstone River by Terry, MT. Our trip started out very interesting when, about halfway there, some of the fiberglass blew off our camper. We are not sure why it happened, but it was pretty sickening to see. Neil and his brother tarped the camper up and it worked just great.

Sterling loves camping, but he was ready for bed. There were right around 10 dogs camping and they all get along amazingly well, but they wear eachother out. When we first get there, Sterling runs around like crazy, then by the second day, he won't leave Neil's or my side because he doesn't want anyone to go in the camper without him.
I got to cuddle with both my babies. It was tough with Kynlie because it was pretty cold and windy and she still can't breathe in the wind, but she hates being covered and bundled up. It was also hard keeping her away from the campfire/cigarette/cigar smoke. I felt like I was walking in circles around the campfire. Thankfully we had our camper so when she had enough, we could go in there and get out of the elements. She did great though for still being so little and for the weather not being the best.

Kynlie has started really liking her rice cereal. A lot of it has to do with us feeding her earlier so we aren't trying it when she is crabby at night. She has started really babbling, it sounds like she is really talking, in her own little language. Even when she is screaming at me, I have to laugh because it sounds like she is cussing me out in Chinese.

We had to get a picture of her with her daddy in her "I love daddy" bib because earlier in the day, she had a diaper blowout in her "I love daddy" onesie and it was unsaveable. She was making it up to her daddy for wrecking the onesie. She also got her first camp bath because of the blowout, but I didn't get any pictures of it.

She is a big finger sucker. Not a thumb sucker unless it goes in with 3 or 4 other fingers!
We had a great weekend, but I think camping will be a little more enjoyable when the weather is a lot nicer. I felt like if I wasn't trying to keep her out of the wind, I was trying to keep her out of the sun. I just can't win!
