When Daddy's away, we will play

Daddy and Tio Albano went to Idaho. Since Liliana had a double ear infection we stayed behind. We managed to have fun. Friday we went shopping and to our cousins house. Liliana got two brand new toys a stroller and a laptop. She is too cute!! Then yesterday, we went for a walk and just hung around the house!!

ER Visit

Liliana had her first ER visit Wednesday night. We tried to put her to sleep as usual and she did not go to sleep, she kept crying and weeping. She cried for 3 hours. I finally told Marco that Tylenol did not work and that I think we should take her in. I thought maybe since I had given her a new food, that she might be reacting to it. She had been fine all day.
The most difficult part of the ER visit was getting there. We currently have Kaiser and drive 15 minutes to get to a hospital. Well Wednesday it took us 1 hour and 10 minutes and of course Liliana was very fussy.
When we got there it did not take very long to get seen at all. We saw the triage nurse within 5 minutes. She checked her temperature and told me that she could put money on it that Liliana was constipated, boy was she wrong!! Liliana was seen by the doctor and had a double ear infection. Poor baby!!

Evening at the Park

Yesterday I took Liliana to the park with Sophie and Paula. Liliana and I went down the slide together a few times and she had a great time on the moving bridge. She also went down the slide a few times with Sophie. They had a great time!! Pictures to come soon!!

Oh yeah not to mention, I think Liliana has a best friend. She cries and points to Sophie's house and smiles and throws her kisses when she sees here. They are so cute together.

Sunday Fun with Sophie

Sophie and Liliana always have a good time together and today was no exception. The girls got to go swimming together today!! Liliana also had a chance to hang out with Michelle, Luis's girlfriend.
Look at me, thanks Melanie and Kevin

Six Flags Discovery Kingdom AKA Marine World

Our friends Melanie and Kevin had tickets to Marine world and they invited us to go along. Who could refuse an offer like that!! Thanks guys it was great to get to hang out with you and it was great to have you share in one of Liliana's firsts!!

We had a great time! We saw various animal shows. We got to see the dolphins, killer whale, and sea lions perform. We also got to see the pigeons, walrus, birds and reptiles, giraffes, lions and tigers. Liliana loved to see all the animals. She clapped and sat so attentive during the sea lion and killer whale show!! She waved bye to all the birds as they flew away during there show!

She also had her first taste of an icee and a frozen lemonade. She loved them both but who wouldn't. lol!! We also got to go on a carousel ride, she enjoyed that as well, or at least when she got going!!

Kids really do say the cutest things. As we were watching the Dolphins one little girl says to a friend "Look dolphins have belly buttons, I've learned something already. Little did she know what that whole was really for lol!!

I was pleasantly surprised at the combination of animals and amusement rides at the park. It is a great place to take older kids. We had quite a time with one of the park employees, because we had to park the stroller in a designated area, yet lili was sleeping and we wanted to be in the back so we could watch the show and she could be in the shade and she did not allow it.In addition you had to remain seated in the arena. I guess if you decide to take ur children you may want to be prepared for this. One thing that you could do is take a backpack or carry them.

Thanks Melanie and Kevin for a good time!!

Update

I was able to get my glasses fixed, well not really I bought new frames and just had to put my old lenses in them. I hate the new frames. I'll have to post pictures. My phone didn't die, I left it out in the sun and it dried out and is working again :) There is good news on a house, but I am not saying which one yet, not until the bank signs and we have it in writing, we currently have a tentative verbal agreement.
