Current mood: happy
Well we were planning on going down to San Diego again for some Mia party shopping and a few errunds but once the day got going... it just got to late to go. (Mainly due to traffic). We were all ready and set to have a fun day and it was such a beautiful day out we just couldn't pass up the chance of going out together as a family anyways.
So after lunch we headed off to Fry's electronics in San Marcos (about an hour drive south of us). Adrian needed a new memory card for the computer and I guess they had some sale going on or something. I wasn't paying attention. All I knew is that it would be Mia's first time at Fry's and I thought it would be a nice family outting and drive.
Mia was being her normal silly self, singing, making faces, and playing in the back seat. She was really happy due to her extra long mid-morning nap. Once we got to Frys we loaded her into the basket and off shopping we went. Every Frys has their own theme, and for San Marcos its Underwater World type thing so they had big aquariums of fish! and clam stuff everywhere. I took a few pictures of Mia to pass some time, since Daddy was taking FOREVER browsing haha. We showed her the giant fish tank which she seemed to be amused by it. We have no money to go to SeaWorld so this is as close to fish as she will get for now haha. After alittle more shopping it was time to go home.
It was such a nice day out it would have been a shame to go straight home, so we decided to stop off at the Temecula Duck Pond on the way home! YAY! One of my favorite places. We had not taken Mia there since she was really little. I don't even think she could roll over yet, or if she could she barely learned how. So it was fun to see her actually enjoy herself. At first she didn't even want to touch the grass, she barely picked at it. By the end she was crawling all over it, tearing it up and attempting to EAT it! haha. The whole pond/park is on an incline so she couldn't really balance herself to walk though she did try and yes she did roll down the hill once. Daddy horsed around with her and put her on his shoulders and ran all over the place, which made her scream and laugh. It was really cute to watch them play. We spent a good deal of time there before we decided to go next door and eat at Pat & Oscars. Another favorite of ours.
At Oscars we sat Mia down in a highchair and we all grubbed out on some awesome food. Poor Mia still got her baby snacks but she will be eating breadsticks with the rest of us really soon! haha She did good though and had a great time.
We later went home and I don't know if it was the sun or what but I got a POUNDING headache, so there wasn't much fun time once we got home. At least not for Mama. I let Mia play a bit and off to bed she went. Phew.. what a fun eventful day.. I love family outings like that, even if it is just to the store and a park its so much fun for all of us.
