Coronodo Beach

The kids loved the beach. It was a cloudy day but the weather was perfect. I don't know what it is about the beach but it is so calming for me and entertaining for the kids.

Sea World

I Love Sea World! I really am amazed by the killer whales and could watch them all day.

I secretly loved that Sesame Street was there and could not wait for Brooklyn to see Elmo. She was excited but did not want to get to close so Jacee went up with her for the picture. Of course Elmo wasn't available for pictures. Oh well we love Abby and Cookie Monster too. I forced Nathan to get his picture with cookie monster and it was worth it. Cookie Monster kept hugging him and it was adorable.

A little bit nervous...

San Diego Zoo

The zoo always seems like so much fun until you get there, doesn't it? This zoo is enormous and covered with plants of all kinds. We took the tour but some lady stood up right in front of us the whole time so all we seen was the back of her pink shirt. In all honesty Brooklyn loved the seagulls in the parking lot probably more than anything on this whole trip.

Dana Landing on Mission Bay

This is the hotel we stayed at while in San Diego last week. The rooms were just ok but the surrounding area was amazing. Right out our front door was the marina where you could rent paddle boats or bikes and we watched the fireworks from Sea World every night at 10:00. Around the corner was a huge grassy area with huge palm trees and a bike trail. The hotel had two pools one overlooking the bay and the other was surrounded by vegetation. They had lots of activities for kids but the only one we did was the movie by the pool. This was a very nice place to stay.

Hip Hop

Nathan took a Hip Hop workshop with his best friends Christian and Kaylani. It was for one week and then they performed up at Tuacahn. I thought it was so cute! And if you have never drove up to Tuacahn you should it is beautiful.

Thumbthing WiErD is Going On

Why has my 2 1/2 year old started to suck her thumb? I will blame it on the nursery since that is where it all began. I thought it would go away, just a phase, but we are now on week 3 (maybe 4). And just recently she has started rubbing her ear lobes while sucking her thumb. Is she nervous? Is she worried? She is the most pampered girl I know so I can't think of a thing that would make her upset. I give this new habit of hers 2 thumbs down.
