They are also currently building a new habitat for some Elephants, so next time that we go back I hope to see them there. I would really love to go to the San Diego Zoo, I hear it is really huge and nice, it is pretty much so big I think you have to take a tram through the place. I’ve also started to think a lot about other fun places to go, exotic places and new places. You can find CheapCaribbean coupons at FindSavings.com, so that really gets me pondering about a Caribbean trip and other places I can find savings on.

We went to the Santa Monica beach last week and had so much fun! It isn’t exactly Summer weather yet, but it was sunny enough with a slight wind chill. It wasn’t all that crowded either so there was tons of room for the kids to play in the sand. Playing in the sand is their most favorite part of being at the beach and of course their father built a lovely sand castle as well.

My daughter enjoyed the water as well but it was pretty cold, so of course we only got in to our ankles. I wouldn’t mind going to the beach more often since it is such a nice atmosphere. My son had so much fun in the sand it was unbelievable and he only tried tasting the sand once i assure you haha and then after that it was all about the shovel. He also took a liking to the local sea gulls and had fun chasing after those for a while and also gave me a workout hehe Fun times!

My daughter enjoyed saying “trick or treat” at the doors and felt really proud of the candy she earned. Of course the second we got home I had to go and check each piece to make sure it looked safe and then monitor her intake = ) As we all know, most parents help with the intake part anyways hehe My son wasn’t too sure what was going on but he looked cute in his little pumpkin outfit and enjoyed looking around..

Last time I wrote I also mentioned my daughter needed to get her flu shot still and she did but she wasn’t happy about it at all! This was the first time where she actually started to scream before they even touched her with it. It made me feel bad and I’m not looking forward to any future shots but I will just have to give her a pep talk the next time so she’s more comfortable..

I told my daughter that next time we go we will bring kites because she mentioned kites. She had a lot of fun too, running around with her brother and playing on all of the slides and stuff. We actually go to the park pretty often but my son has only been walking on his own for about a month now so this was the first time he actually got to run around at the park on his own. We usually just slide down the slides with him on our lap (which we can still do) but anyways, it was just really fun and I want to go back soon!

My dad also had a bunch of stuff for me, it seems like whenever I go over there he has things to give me because he either has too much of something or just wont use it. Things like spaghetti noodles and other random things, sometimes my grandma will pick up some odd thing for me while she is out shopping and I end up weith some weird things lol It was fun over there and my son was even walking around outside, it was so cute! My daughter  helped me wash the car and just played in the water and got soaking wet! It was hot though so it was okay.

Just before that was my boyfriend’s birthday and it went pretty good too and we ate a nice dinner together. He doesn’t really seem any older but neither does my son, although I still can’t believe he is 1 year old. He is getting new teeth in like crazy right now. Both the top and bottom lateral incisors are coming in now, so he almost has 8 teeth now. I took tons of pictures of my son’s birthday so I am glad we will all be able to cherish his first birthday forever. In two days is is his 1 year check up and I will write about that later when I find out his weight and height measurements. He will also be getting a few shots =( I’m sure everything will go fine as usual and that he is healthy. Check back later!

Dolphins are such wonderful creatures and it is amazing what they can be taught to do, same goes for most of the other animals they keep. I’m even considering going to the San Diego Zoo while we are over in the area, we’d have to stay for the weekend or something because the San Diego Zoo is so huge that you can’t see the whole thing in one day, maybe we could if we got one one of the tram things. It is sort of sucky for the animals that they are locked up but hey they have an easy life and kids get to learn from them!

One that I like a lot is Alice in Wonderland, I think it is such a cute movie with the rabbit and Alice. It’s a nice adventure movie and the lyrics are interesteing too, some of the things that Alice says get me thinking hahaThe kitten at the beginning of the movie that Alice has is also very cute.  Here is a cute little song from the movie if you haven’t had the pleasure of watching it for yourself.
