Baby's First Vacation

We embarked on our first vacation with little Addy. We went to Colorado and found out that a baby sure has a way of turning a 6 hour drive into a 12 day! We also found out that poor Addy gets car sick; we now keep the car stocked with plenty of wipes, a towel, plastic bags and a change of clothes. I felt so bad for her. We had a lot of fun. Addy was such a good girl and it is so much fun to watch her learn and explore. Here are some of the things we did:




We stopped half-way through the drive to give Addy a break. We hung out in a mall for a few hours and let her play in the play place and ride in a helicopter. She was so cute!


We attended the Broncos vs. Raiders game. It was a blast. As you can see, the venue is huge and the atmosphere was great.







We went to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs. I have never been to the zoo before (at least that I can remember), so I think I may have been more excited than Addy. She was just probably wondering where her crazy parents were dragging her next! The giraffes were everyone's favorite attraction. Addy was so brave; she feed a cracker to one. She only did it once though!

Sidenote: If you are ever traveling to Colorado Springs and need a good hotel, we can recomment one. The hotel we stayed in had a waterslide, people. A WATERSLIDE! Not a lame one; a good one. What a concept.



On the way home, Addy got her first Chuck E Cheese experience. She liked riding in the car with him and playing skeet ball. Tyler and I pooled our ticket together and got a pretty pink braclet for her.
