A Day At The Beach

Labor Day Weekend

Auntie Nan came to stay with us the Tuesday before Labor day. So we decided to go to the zoo on Friday, and then we stayed overnight in the Hilton in Downtown San Diego (thanks to priceline.com). After the zoo we checked into the hotel and then went to dinner at Rockin Baja Lobster. Very Yummy! After that Auntie Nan and I sent the boys back to the room with daddy and went to a Mac store by ourselves to get beautification items. Then Saturday we met Uncle Phil, Aunt Karen, and Jamie Fournier at Mission Bay, and they had their boat. We had lots of fun! The sun decided come out half way through the day and it got nice and warm, so it felt good to get on the innertube. Big Brother and Little Brother had lots of fun in the sand and water.

So sweet and cute!

Silly String!

Aunti Nan decided that the boys needed something to make them sit still for haircuts. So she bought them silly string, and they sat as still as boys can! They had fun with the silly string.

Wagon Ride

Socks

My mother-in-law found these socks somewhere and the boys love them. Chub-Chub especially! They are so big that they go all the way up to his fat little thighs! :)

First Time Swimming this Spring

I had bought a pool the week before when it was very hot, then it turned just warm. But the kids wanted to swim anyways. By the time they got out they were very cold...their lips were shaking!

Grampy Bought a Swing Set

The swing set was a hit. The three kids love it.

Update

Big brother is in preschool now and is loving it. I can't believe I already have a child ready for school. In some ways its exciting but in others its sad. What I am going to do when both kids are in school. They are my whole life and keep me busy, so when they aren't home, what am I going to do? Probably all the things I have been wanting to get done but can't because they can't seem to give me the time! :) Painting, blogging, scrapbooking, baking, exercising, relaxing! :)
Does anyone (whoever reads my blog) have a probably with keeping within their grocery budget lately? I sure hav been. I can't seem to fix the prob either. I have cute back on somethings but if I cute back more, it'll mean more rice and bean! :) Crazy uh. It food keeps going up I dont know what I'll do! Any advice? Help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am going to try to do better on keeping my blog updated. The last few months have been busy with moving, then getting the place clean, then Chub-Chubs falling and now he's sick, so things can get crazy around here. But here is a few pics of him after he fell.

Chub-Chubs Looking Cute

This was taken at Heather and Davids Wedding. The boys had matching suits. Isn't he so cute? Why oh why do they have to grow up?????

Our 5th Anniversary Cruise.

A four night three day cruise with Royal Caribbean. Our boys stayed with Nanna. It left from San Pedro Port on Monday Feb 18th. We got on the ship by 12:00 and had lunch, then by 1:30 our room was ready. After that we just walked around looking at everything. There are shops on board, a Viking Crown Lounge that you can sit in and see all around because it is at the very top of the ship and is circular. Very neat to sit in and watch the ship move out to sea. There was an safety drill at 4:30 then after that we went to sit in the spa and the sauna because I miss placed a rib coughing so hard with the life jacket on! The spa helped. :) Our dinner seating wasn't until 8:30 so we had plenty of time to take it easy. Tuesday morning the ship docked in San Deigo by 8 am. We slept in of course and after breakfast got off the ship and went to see the USS Midway. Pretty neat. Such a huge ship! Then we walked over to Sea Port Villiage and browsed through stores. Hubby found a book, so we went back to the ship, ate a late lunch and then lounged around until time to get reay for dinner. It was formal night Tuesday. The food of course was good. I had tarimasu for dessert. So YUMMMMMMMY! Wednesday we anchored in Catalina Island's bay. We just walked around looking at the shops and houses. The was a comedian show at 6:45 on ship so we got back in time for that. Then ate dinner, and the Chocolate Lovers Buffet was at 11:30 pm. It was very well decorated and they had tons of different desserts. All you could possible want to eat! Thursday the shipped dock in Esenada, Mexico. Its an interestind town. Lots of little shops. My hubby bought me a necklace. An flower made out of a abalony shell. Thursday was our last night on the ship. We went to a musical show at 6:45, then ate. We were tired and went to be ealier than any other night. Friday we were off the ship by 8 something. We both had a relaxing time. It was so nice to not have to change a diaper or anything else. Down below is a slide show of our cruise.
