Sierra got her day with Mommy at Disneyland and I had a free child's ticket to Legoland so it was Ashton's turn. Last night we got packed up and loaded up, kissed daddy goodbye and headed to the OC to stay with my sister. We arrived and were greeted with pure excitement from some pretty cute little boy's. We played and then we brushed teeth, got tucked in blankets on the floor and then I (mommy and auntie) told not just 1 but 2 scary stories. They weren't that scary, in fact when the first one was over Nixon said "that's it?!" I got to sleep on Rossi's AWESOME tempurpedic mattress topper with Sierra and it was heavenly! :) I got to sleep with all the kids! :)They are such good sleepers. Corbin is a wonderful sleeper, at just barely 3 months old he completely sleeps through the night and then until about 8:30am, Briana=so lucky! We arose and got going, made pancakes for the kiddos and gave Rossi his chocolate milk, hurried and finished my makeup and then Ashton and I were off. Sierra got to spend the day with Aunt Briana and the boys...
She had such a fun day of watching Corpse Bride, going to the store, out to pizza for lunch, the book store, painting a jar, making sugar cookies. Thanks Briana for being so sweet with her and keeping her for the day! :)
After a beautiful drive along the coast we arrived at Legoland. It was raining on us the whole night at Briana's and still in the morning, worried that we were going to have a wet day but it was beautiful and didn't rain on us once.
First things first, Ashton needed to practice his skills and dig for dinosaur bones. He wants to be a paleontologist when he grows up and he LOVED digging through the sand and brushing the bones. We first uncovered a Triceratops and he also found a big T-rex bone and an egg too.
We were off to ride a dino-coaster and then a safari trek. The favorites of the day was DIGGING for DINO BONES! and the Project X that was just like Mulhulland Madness at Ca Adventure. Oh, and driving the cars. He got to drive a car by himself on a rode that had no track. He got a drivers license too!
We had to get a hopper ticket to use the free child's ticket so we went to Sea-Life. We saw them feed the baby sharks and we learned that Octopus like to play with toys, there was a ball in it's tank. They are as smart as dogs. Ashton liked the hammerhead shark too and the scratch quiz card he got to scratch off the circles to find the right fish to win a sticker at the end of our adventure. After he got his sticker he said, "I would have rather kept the quiz!"
We finished our day back at digging for dino bones and uncovered a Stegasaurus.
We had a great day together, I cherish the time I have with my children. and the intimate one on one time is unforgettable, really special! Love my big boy!
We made it back to Briana's and they were making the cookies and she was making dinner. I got to give Corbin a bath, sweet baby! We had yummy stovetop mac and cheese and asparagus with their family and a cookie :) and then it was time to get back on the road. SAD! Thanks Briana for having us and keeping Sierra for the day and feeding us. We are so appreciative, love you tons!
