Monday- Kids actual birthday.
We went to a tacqueria in our old neighborhood for lunch. Kids and mommy daddy got to munch on some good ole tacos. Afterwards we headed to the Butterfly Museum and Rebecca met us there. In the evening, everyone that could come met us at the condo to watch them open up presents.

Tuesday- We ventured out to the Children's Museum w/Matthew, my mom, Julie and Matt. We went to Mai's for lunch after. After naptime, we hung out at Julie's house. She babies sat and we assumed other folks were going to join her but it was only her (which we didn't find out until we came back from shopping)...on the way home to the condo and that night at bedtime, the kids LET us know they DID NOT like that at all. I think we stayed out for about 4 hours, didn't think anything of it, but they were not HAPPY CAMPERS! It was the WORST putting them to bed night EVER!

Daddy with Hudson & Skyler in the VW van. Dan and I were talking about how nice it would be to have a van this big to fit everybody.
Opening presents time! My friend, Lynne gave the kids these wonderful Sesame Street character bags and they kids started loading their toys into them.
After opening presents, they started running around the condo. Not much room, but they managed to do a few laps. Miss their long hair but I also like their short hair.
Is this my boy Tobin?
Skyler trying on ALL the clothes my mom got her.
Hudson and his loot.

Mommy and Daddy hiding out in the VW van. Yes Dan's carrying the diaper bag- what a guy!
LOVE this one of Tobin. They had so much FUN in this part of the Museum, Little Mexico.
Tobin getting lunch ready.
Look at Skyler...already "training" guys to kiss her hand. Matt was ready to please her.
Butterfly Museum: Skyler and Hudson "playing" a bug video game.
We did two of these big puzzles. They were really good at it too!
The Bee Hive: the boys spent their time moving and stacking these little chairs.
Kids checking out this big lizard...not sure if you can see him, he's under the light.
I think they were looking at frogs here.
Tried to get the boys on there, but no luck!
Wednesday- My Uncle 9 and his wife came and visited us at the condo in the morning. They brought over their birthday presents. Afterwards, we picked up a dress I bought for Skyler from a triplet SAHM. Love supporting these mommies! We came home and stayed at the condo rest of evening. No one came over, it was a nice quiet day considering we were out the previous days.
Thursday- Tobin had a followup allergist doctor appointment. Dr. Dickens is really good, I highly recommend her! She was so thorough and very nice! Even her staff was nice! We met my family for dim sum at Kim Son afterwards. After naptime, we went to Gail and Bob's and they offered to babies sat for us. We went to dinner at Lupe's Tortilla with one of my friend, Alyssa and her family.
Friday- We took them to our new pedi, Dr. Donlinger for additional booster shots, recommended from the blood work at the last appointment. Then we headed to Pump It Up, but for some reason they didn't want to stay. They were more interested in trying to play with the arcade games there even though they can't reach the joystick and see what's on the screen. It was a hopeless cause for us trying to provide some kind of entertainment for them. We both were annoyed and the best cure for us is food! Off to Tan Tan Restaurant we went! After naptime, we stayed at Julie's for a bit then headed back to the condo and some family came over since I was heading out for GNO. My mom, Matthew, Julie and Dan's parents came by to keep Dan company and played with the kiddos. I went to my friend, Michele who now owns a yoga studio. She had a yoga foodie night, we (Jill came and picked me up) did yoga and then tasted some YUMMY healthy food by a new chef. We continued our GNO at Max's Wine Dive afterwards. I also like girl time!
Saturday- We went to Dan's parents in the morning and then stayed at the condo in the evening. It was Dan's turn for BNO so my mom and Dan's parents got to spend some QT with the kiddos. After I put the kids to bed, I started packing our dish barrel boxes. I had already began taping them up at the beginning of the week. Oh what a fun Saturday night for me! :-)
Sunday- We were at Dan's parents house all day. Everyone getting their kiddos time in!
