There is no school this week. We've been trying to keep busy. Monday we went to the mall, yesterday the library. Today, I'm painting the bathroom. What was I thinking???? I'm 29 weeks pregnant. I've only done about 1/2 of it and it'll need a second coat and I'm EXHAUSTED!!!! I took on a project that is too big for me right now....I'm always tired.

Tomorrow we will continue our outings with a trip to the park with a friend and Friday a playdate here at our house. Not too exciting, but keeping the kids from getting too bored. I think Saturday we will go to the Jelly Belly Factory since we didn't get to go today.
pictures will be posted later.

p.s. Blogger is lame. It won't let me publish my posts. I have to save them first and then go to Edit Posts and then I can publish it. Plus it takes forever to upload pictures. Any suggestions?

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day! We have been celebrating this lovely holiday since last Thursday when we had our Valentine's party for preschool. We made Valentine's and bags and exchanged them, we decorated Valentine's cupcakes. Friday, Lucia had a party at school. Saturday, we got a surprise Valentine's box from the Hill's with all sorts of goodies, cards and homemade hair clips. This morning the kids (minus Lucia who didn't get out bed in time before school) got their little Valentine's goodies from me. I think they've now had enough sugar to last them at least a week! Julio is in San Francisco today, so I don't know when we'll get to go out and have a date. I guess nowadays it's more about the kids. Kind of sad. I will go get him his favorite treat today (pan dulce) and have it waiting for him when he gets home. Other than that, not such a romantic time for us! I'm still happy I have 4 Valentine's and I love them all very much!

Family Day

Free museum day last weekend at the Aerospace Museum. It was very sunny, windy and CROWDED. Geesh, it's like the whole city of Sacramento decided to go to free museum day. It was nice to have a family day though.

In the cockpit of a US Airforce passenger plane that carried former governors.

Marco and Sylvie in the cockpit ready for take-off!

Our backyard doesn't drain very well and there are a lot of muddy spots out there. As a result of falling off the swing face first, Sylvie ended up covered in mud.

Miss Crazy Hair in the tub. Her hair is very hard to manage and she HATES having it brushed or washed.
