We are on vacation in Sunny and very HOT California, visiting my husbands family. And we are having so much fun.
We finally figured out the secret to keeping our kids asleep in the same bed all night. Together. Friday we went to a waterpark since it was 100 degrees, and we needed to stay cool. I had bought the spray sunscreen in a can.....and that did nothing but get us even more burned. We applied every 2 hours and it was spf 50, but that just magnified our skin 50 times apparently. I burnt worse than everyone else. Ouch. After the park, we went to the local county fair and were there for almost 4 hours. Walking. Riding Rides. Eating cotton candy and ice cream. The kids fell asleep in the car and didnt budge when we put them in their bed, washed their feet and put their jammies on them. They didnt move all night long. It was heaven. They woke up this morning refreshed and ready to go, which we did more of that wearing out stuff today. We slept till about 9 this morning, ate breakfast at our hotel and went down for a nap at 1030. Yes, an hour and half after waking. We have alot of sleep to catch up on. We then went to lunch at 2 after we woke up and then to my sister in laws house for a bbq and swimming her pool. Dinner wasnt served until 8 so they swam for a good 4 hours, and we didnt get them to bed until 11, so here is to another night of great sleep.
The weather has been very hot, tomorrow is supposed to be 105. We just found out a week ago that we are expecting baby number 3. What is interesting about this is that we are hoping for a boy. Part of me is scared because with two girls, I know just what to do. With a boy, I have NO clue and it scares me to venture into the unknown. Well, at my sister-in-laws tonite, we did the necklace test. This is an old wives tale where you hold a necklace above the palm of your hand. If it goes in circles, it is a girl and if it goes back and forth it is a boy. When it stops you are done. So, the first time and second time, it went in circles to represent the two we have. Then it went back and forth to represent that we are having a boy. The next time we did it, it did nothing, meaning we are done after this one. This is so interesting because we knew we were done at 3, but this was weird seeing it done. And it will be interesting to see in Sept if we are in fact having a boy. So, if anyone has ever done this test, I would love to hear what you think.
That is about it for now, sorry I dont have any pics to upload, but when we get home next week, I will upload some pics of the fun we have been having. I normally am not one to like hot weather, but right now not only do I like it, but food is my best friend and tastes SO yummy and therefore I cannot get enough:)
