Visit with grandma

What a great weekend! We’ve had awesome weather the past few days. Friday we went with our friends to the beach. It was our first beach day of the year and Anika’s first beach day ever. The water was perfect. Caylin had a blast playing in the water and sand with her little girlfriends while Anika hung out in her little cabana.

Saturday we went with some friends to Sea World and had breakfast with Elmo. Sea World is now in collaboration with Seasame Street so there are a few new attractions in which the kids can get up close and personal with Sesame Street characters.

Caylin had a BLAST! It was so cute to watch her excitement when she saw Ernie, Elmo, Zoe, and Big Bird.

The characters came out and danced with the kids, then during their break, the morning turned into “breakfast with Will”. Caylin and her little friends had a great time dancing with Will. After our Sea World outing we picked grandma Airdrie up from the airport. She came to stay with us until Tuesday afternoon. Caylin enjoyed spending time with grandma reading stories together and getting to try on a little bit of her lipstick.

Aiana was away for the evening at Mimi’s (my mom). Clarke and Tami came down for the night so Aiana went over to spend the night with them. They had an awesome visit. Saturday evening they took a walk down to the cliffs in Ocean Beach and it happened to be high tide.

The girls had a blast getting splashed and watching the waves that were crashing right up on the stairs. Sunday we went over to my dads for a barbeque and swimming.

Monday we spent the day at the beach again. This time daddy got to come along too.

Monday evening Will, Aiana, Aiana’s friend, and I went to the Padre game while the grandmas watched Caylin and Anika. I was VERY excited to have a night out without the little ones. I don’t get too much time these days to be with Aiana without her little sisters needing most of my attention. We all had a great time. Will and I really enjoyed Aiana and her friends company. It was nice to be out with the “tweens”, we didn’t have to listen to toddler music in the car and we didn’t have to take anyone potty or change any diapers. We were able to just sit back and enjoy the game and each others company.
