Naps

December 27th, 2008 by melissa

This morning we decided to go to the Santa Ana Zoo. Get one more use out of our passes. Most of the animals were sleeping. Of course the kids liked the ostrich and monkeys. The monkeys were a little active. The kiddos were more excited about riding the train. We also rode the carousal. Then we went over to the farm area. The kiddos liked feeding the goats, they wanted more and more goat food. The whole time the kids kept on asking for a snack so we decided to head out for lunch. We also stopped at Target. Nicole’s laptop isn’t working so we want to find her a new one, but every store seems to be out of it. The kiddos fell asleep on the way home. What a nice change for the kiddos to take a nap. We just sat in the car while they napped, of course it killed me as I could have been getting stuff done. We let the kiddos wake up slowly by watching TV. Nicole was sleepy but Justin was ready to go drive his car. After TV and after taking all the Chrismakkah decorations down, we went to the park. The kids biked there while daddy used his trike and I walked just in case I was needed to help a kid. The kids biked all around the park and did so well on their new bikes. When we got home, they drove their cars. They are loving the fast speed on their cars, both going over the curbs with big silly grins on their faces. We had to stop though as the kiddos kept crashing. After dinner, we had play doh night. It was fun, we all did play doh at the kitchen table. The kids really enjoyed it! We keep forgetting to give the kids candy canes. Poor kids we told them they could have it. Against our better judgement we let them have them an hour before bed. We knew the kiddos would go to bed a little later anyhow since they napped. Justin was so cute telling me I love you so much, etc….he was probably stalling going to bed, but I loved every minute of it.
