We love Saturdays. We went to the model train thing in Costa Mesa. Justin just loved watching the trains. It is a great long ride, the kids loved it. Then we needed to get something from Grammy’s house so we headed over there and brought our lunch. The kiddos played, rode trikes, and tried roller skating for the first time. Unfortunately I left my camera over at Grammy’s so can’t post pics. Justin was crying over silly things and fell asleep in the car and Nicole did too. Dad ran into Circuit City to use a gift card before they go out of business while I stayed in the car with two sleeping kids. I finsihed making a big cupcake cake for Vena’s birthdayand the kids got some cake. We talked to Lisa, Todd, Grammy, Meghan, and Henry via the computer. So funny when they saw each other on the computer screen everyone got pretty quiet. Then we gave the kiddos a bath and looked at old pics while they were bathing. Of course the kiddos needed our undivided attention so it wasn’t working out too well. After bath we wanted to head over to Victoria and Todd’s, however, the kids wanted to do a lot at home. So dad and Justin quickly played with the hose while I helped Nikki roller skate. Our kiddos were so needy and just wanting to play with us the entire time at Victoria’s. Nicole loved playing with Penny’s dollhouse and loved the people. There were 2 babies + cribs, plus a mommy and daddy. Of course I played the role of mommy, finally I got away for a bit by saying mommy was out playing Bunco. It was cute but I wanted to chat with some friends. Justin was playing with Penny’s tools and asking daddy what he could screw. We came home and the kids just wanted to play at home. We went upstairs and put them to bed at 8:30. I keep hearing Nicole every now and then but I think she will be asleep soon.
