Sexton's do St Louis

Kim, Steve, and Claire came to St Louis to see us! They got here about 745 on Friday night. We had Guido's pizza (delicious St Louis style pizza), gave Miss Claire a bath, and talked the night away.
This morning we got up- played with Claire, had pancakes, and then headed to the City Museum. The museum was AWESOME... not what we expected at all. It was like a HUGE playground-adults entered at their own risk.

The 5 of us before we entered "The Caves"


CUTE family




Kyle in "The Caves"


So in "The Caves" there is a 10 story slide... this is at the bottom looking up.

Half way up!
Kim, Steve, and Claire waited for Kyle and I at the bottom.


We made it to the top...looking down before going down the slide.


Kyle coming down.
The City Museum has an aquarium on the second floor. It was the main reason we went. We thought Claire would love looking at all the fish. She did!!

ClaireBear watching the fish! She was so fun!

We looked at the stingrays...

and sharks...
and the sea turtles...

and then she was POOPED!
Rough Life..
:)
While we were in the museum, it got cold and started raining. We wanted to take Kim and Steve to our favorite ice cream place, Ted Drewes, but we decided something hot sounded much better!
SO we headed to Kayak Coffee down by Wash U to warm up!

Kyle LOVES Claire.
and Claire LOVES Kyle.

Kayak has this fun dessert called Smores for Four.
You roast marshmellows and make your own smore.
SO FUN!
After smores and coffee we headed back to the apartment to let Claire stretch and play awhile before they got back into the car to head home. :(

ClaireBear with T and Kyle! :)
We had a fabulous time and can't wait to see Kim, Steve, and Claire again SOON!
