Ok, so I know it's been a while...between getting over the holidays, going to Tahoe for a short trip that ended poorly & waiting out the stomach flu for a week and a half after...I am coming up for air and trying to catch up! Whew! I would've liked to say that this year is off to a good start but I don't feel it has been at all! Imagine me...I am feeling like a little child stomping my feet saying "it's not fair!" I was so mad that our much awaited trip to Tahoe with the kids seeing snow for the first time turned out the way it did. Especially since it was beautiful weather for Tahoe when we were there. Abi didn't get to enjoy it one bit and Massimo had lots of fun right outside the house, but we never did make it out to really enjoy the snow. Luckily Massimo is too young to know better - though he did keep asking when we were going "to the snow". Well, there's always next year...but let me tell you...when we only get a few chances to get away each year with Donavan's schedule...this was a total bummer for us! I hope to post some of the cute pictures we got of their snow experience right off the side of the house soon!
Fun at the SF Aquarium by the Bay
We took a trip to the SF Aquarium by the Bay today to satisfy Massimo's constant wish to "see the ocean and fishies". At the end of the day we asked Massimo if he had fun (yes, of course he says) and his most favorite thing was the...scuba diver! Yes, that's all he talked about when we asked him what he saw. Of course when we jogged his memory and talked about the fish and what we did he enjoyed "finding Nemo" (one of his favorite movies - and where the fascination of scuba divers all started...don't be surprised if that's what he ends up being for Halloween!) and touching the Stingray and sharks...and outside of the aquarium he got to see trains (Bart), trolleys, buses, and of course the ocean! It was all very exciting for him to be in a big city like that with so much variety around him...so many things to see. The twins loved it, too. Abrianna got to interact a lot more since she is walking and more able, it was a little hard to let Dante crawl so he got to snack and check it all out from stroller view. He did get out at the end in the toddler area and got to touch the sea urchins and he loved that so much! He got really excited watching all the fish swim by. It was a fun day (and tiring chasing after at least 2 and sometimes 3).
