Another fun trip to SJ! We accomplished all our errands and had fun too! Pookie and I had a dental cleaning. It was her very first one and she not only received and excellent dental report, she was also an excellent patient!
Pearly whites!
We got her passport renewed and in 14 days she will be ready for a new book of stamps :).
On the fun note, we went to a night time movie, Transylvania 2, that was in 3d. Sophie loved wearing her glasses and seeing all the vampires pop out. Sabs watched the whole thing without glasses and mainly loved chomping on her big bucket of popcorn.
We ate at Will’s favorite Indian restaurant and got the primo table outside next to the playground. The girls made a little buddy and they all ran around playing chase and hide n seek. These two make friends everywhere they go. Within 3 minutes Sophie had her arm wrapped around him.
We ate breakfast at the hotel each morning. Went for an evening and morning swim. Watched E.T. on the big tv as a family (Sab loved it), and of course the girls were greeted with a special toy each and this time they had a cool kid tent with aerobed :).
Some fun in the hotel room
When i want Sabs to look at camera and smile now, I usually have to say “show me your teeth” and she gives me her big goofy smile…this time didn’t work out so well. Bahahaha. She’s like “there are my damn teeth momma! There they are! See em! (if i had to guess what she was trying to say of course)”. Complete with Diva princess crown.
Some random car selfies along the way (no one puked this time around. Win!)
We also took a trip to Parque Divertido which was a huge amusement park. It stormed while we were there but only for about 30 minutes so we rode the merry go round for bit. Pookie was afraid of the water rides and Sabs was pretty much done with rides after her experience on the ladybug. This is her all smiles and stoked before the ride began. I think she thought this was the ride…then it started moving…
Then it started moving and she held on for dear life with the most panicked look on her face.
And here is the video of what was happening:
First the before…la la la…fun fun fun
Here is the after. Hear all the kids laughing and having fun…Sabs was not one of them. She was gripping the damn bug for dear life with a terrified look on her face. This quickly escalate to “want out! want out!”. Each time their little bug rolled around we tried to get Sophie’s attention to calm her sissy. We finally succeeded and Sophie tried to hold Sabi’s hand. We then heard Sabs screaming, “Sissy no! Sissy off”. Comfort failed. Thankfully she lasted on it until it stopped because i wasn’t sure she was going to last that long. Sophie went on the ride about 3 more times after. Sabs stood on the side and gladly waved each time she passed around.
On to some more pics from the park and lunch before the park
Here is Sabs so proud of her bracelet to go into the park (she threw a fit to get it off about 40 minutes later so i walked around with it in my pocket).
We rode the 2pm ferry home and the girls made a little buddy that they played with on the boat. Another fun SJ trip in the books. Today we are home, Sophie is back at school (she was out of her mind excited) and Sabsy is singing nursery rhymes while eating/wearing crackers and cream cheese next to me. The animals are back home and all well. Life is good.
