Our Spring Break Vacation Part 1

Better late than never right? On spring break we took Lucy and headed down to San Diego. We had a GREAT time, other than the fact that Troy ended up getting BAD strep throat....but he was a trooper!!! So we started our vacation at Sea World! We got passes ( mine was for free because I am a teacher, awesome right? )




The first time we went to Sea World with Lucy we got cotton candy ...so in order to keep the tradition going on we got some more! ( we need to stop this tradition because none of us like it! )




Another tradition picture....going to see the 4-D show.



When we finally got to our room Lucy had a blast playing with the keyboard and the telephone and called it her office."

The hotel was very different, it was the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay. It had just gone under a HUGE remodel, yet the room we stayed in seemed to still have the old feel....but we loved it!

Getting ice cream....and playing around in the grass.

From this ice cream spot ( off of Rosecrans ) we can see airplanes fly over as well!
This vacation I gave Lucy my ipod touch because I never ever use it...and she started to get a hang of it.....so after the pool that night she played around with it.
That is it for day one! ( something to remember? Troy getting a massive fever that night and throwing up ----poor guy! )

My little man is 1!!!

A picture of him ON his special day!!

I cannot believe he is one. This year went WAY too quick! Some things about Stetson right at this moment....

-off bottles, onto sippy cups and he takes WAY longer to drink and he isn't as happy them so we may switch back to bottles as horrible as it sounds. Time will tell. I am ok with it all because he is my last baby...so baby him all I want.

update to last bullet- we put him back on bottles ( just really cheap bottles because we threw away our Dr. Brown's ones ) so he has a bottle at night....but sippy cups of soy milk at breakfast and before nap

-no more formula!

-doesn't like ketchup ( what kid doesn't like ketchup???)

-loves chicken!

-had his first ear infection ( with a 104 fever and throwing up - doc said he probably just throws up with high fever since this isn't the first time he has had 104 and throwing up ) and doc also deduced that he got the ear infection from being dunked in the pool---because he didn't have a cold or congestion at all before the infection )

-three weeks later---got a second ear infection...well actually double ear infections. And is teething really bad. I am hoping this all goes away quickly poor guy. Luckily...he sleeps REALLY well no matter what, he can just be fussier during the day.

- LOVES playing with Lucy and tries to do everything she does. It is SO cute. ( until he gets hurt because i know he will )

-Is a daredevil. Climbs on everything

-Has taken steps, but likes to crawl WAY more

-Likes to play peek a boo with his blanket

-This month he began saying hi, night night, baba ( bottle ) and thank you

Lucy's 1st dentist trip!

Now that Lucy is BEYOND 3, I really knew I needed to take her to the dentist. I asked for a good recommendation from my friends and we fell in love! They were sooooo all about the child. Here are a few pictures of her visit. There were numerous waiting rooms, and this one had a few different gaming systems.
Getting her teeth cleaned....they give the kids sunglasses because the light is "so bright" when they are looking in her mouth. I was shocked she wore them, what a perfect picture opportunity!



The dentist checking for cavities, she didn't have ANY! Yahoo!
A trip to the toy chest ( the best part of the dentist right? )
And a little playing at the fountain afterwards.
What a perfect morning! Stetson was able to go the week after, he did just as well. Now we will be going every 6 months for the both of them.

Tater tots and Jello

I have been taking a stab at making a few crafts lately that I have seen on blogs lately. This burlap wreath, seen on Tatertots and Jello....is one of them. Here is my lovely model showing you what it looks like. I added green ribbon to the top and it is now hanging on my front door. I think I will be making more according to different seasons. This will be my spring one :)

NIght out

We went to an activity at our church awhile back and had a lot of fun. I tried my best to document some of it......
