Love winter time in CA. The weather was fantastic today. This morning Dad and Justin went and got daddy car an oil change and wash. Nicole and I took down Valentine decorations, did laundry, cleaned out mommy car, packed up a little for our trip, and gave Nikki’s babies check ups. Nicole pretended she was the doctor and I was the mommy. We had so much to do today so it took us a while to figure out how to do it. The good news is daddy had the day off. We went in two separate directions. Dad and Justin went to get sandwiches at our favorite place and meet us at Tewinkle Park. Nicole and I went to get the rest of her prescription then meet up to have a picnic in the park. We had a great time at the park. The kids were finding squirrels and loved climbing on the rocks. We played at the play structure for a bit then wandered around the park. The kids put their feet in the stream and showed daddy everything we did yesterday. We fed the ducks and there were some turtles sitting in the sun. It was great just being together and enjoying us as a family. We had to head over to Grammy’s as we left our video camera there. Grammy also needed Bret’s help with a few things around the house. The kids played. Justin rode the trike and we played frisbee outside. We needed to pick up Nicole’s new bed so Grammy babysat while we did that. Nikki was so excited. Grammy had some sheets for her and she had her choice and picked pirates. She said she liked them cause they were bad. Hopefully she will change to princess. The kids watched Arthur and Clifford then we headed to dinner. We went to Soupplantation for dinner. We had two cars since the bed was in mine and I couldn’t fit both kids in the car. Nicole and I got gas then needed to head to a friend’s house to get snow clothes. Nicole wanted her new bed in the house so badly. So sad that she no longer wants her cute Dora bed. I love that girly bed. We just put her mattress on the floor tonight as we want to paint the trim on the bed a bit. The kids went to bed a little late and Bret and I are getting ready for the mountains tomorrow.
