A Carousel Ride and Chargrill

Camille experienced her first carousel ride this past weekend. With the temperatures being as hot as they have been, it has been hard to keep her entertained indoors. Nick & I had the idea to take Camille to the mall to kill some time. Little did we know how much fun Camille would have. One of the local malls here as a big carousel to keep the kids entertained. Well, we decied to try it out! I took Camille on the ride, while Nick stayed behind to do the photographing :) Camille was very unsure at first. She was fine to sit on the horse for a few minutes, but didn't want to hold on, and definitely didn't want me to let go of her. She got real mad when she was asked to be strapped in. She kept saying "no, no, off." We kept her distracted and on the horse. Once the music started and the ride started moving, she was thrilled! She had the biggest smile on her face and even began to sing and sway to the music. The look on her face was priceless and put even bigger smiles on mommy & daddy's faces. Too cute!!

After the ride was over, Camille acted as if she owned the mall. She was all smiles and walked around independantly saying "happy, happy." It was hilarious!! Guess we have a new strategy for indoor play!

On Sunday, Camille got to eat lunch at Chargrill with her best buddy, Madelyn. The girls were so cute together. They wanted to copy everything that the other did and were obsessed with banging on the tables and chairs. Luckily, it wasn't too crowded in the restaurant. Most people enjoyed just watching them amuse themselves. We love how sweet they are together and hope they remain forever friends.
