Maternity Photo Shoot

This Saturday Kelsey and I went out early to get some maternity pictures. I was so excited when she brought them over today. We had a close call where we thought they got deleted, but luckily she was able to save them. I am so glad too because they turned out amazing! Thank you, thank you for capturing this moment in my life Kelsey. You are awesome!

Beach Day

Saturday we spent most of the day at the beach. Eli loved playing down in the water and running from the waves, while Ava was content to play in the sand. I didn't put them in their swimming suits because it was only 69 or 70 and I thought they would just want to stick their feet in the water. Eli was filling up his big bucket when a wave came and knocked him over. He was pretty wet, but didn't seem to mind too much. It was so fun to sit and relax. We walked along the pier and saw people fishing, then hit up Hodad's for some yummy food.

Sea World

We decided to take the kids on a short trip to San Diego at the end of May. We left Thursday after Kaelub finished work and after too many potty breaks we finally got to the hotel. Then we headed out to find a place from the show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives that was supposed to have good Mexican food. Their tacos were yummy! Friday we headed to Sea World and it was overcast so I completely spaced putting on sunscreen. I think Ava and I got the worst of it. Her poor cheeks and nose were pretty red when we left. Eli was tall enough to go on the "big kid" rides, and he liked all of them except Atlantis. The drop was a little too big for him. Both kids loved the dolphin, whale, & sea lion shows. And the rides in the Sesame Street play area were a big hit. Ava was squealing on one of the rides she loved it so much! We tried out the 3D Elmo Movie, but the kids only sat through the first half before they wanted to leave. They sure looked cute in those glasses though! We stayed until they closed and stopped to get New York style pizza from another place that had been featured on the Diners show. It was delicious! The kids were completely worn out from the full day and fell right to sleep that night.
