Legoland and so much more...

We had an incredibly fun weekend! Our cousins from Georgia came to visit, and we were able to show them some of the fun things that San Diego has to offer. Our cousin's kids are crazy about legos and so we spent the entire day at Legoland on Sunday. Samuel was even able to go on 2 different rides, which he loved. Here's Samuel with Thomas the Train made entirely out of Legos. :)
They had the whole park decorated for Fall & Halloween with pumpkins and such. Here's some cute shots of Sammy & us by the big pumpkins!
No trip to San Diego is complete without visiting the beautiful ocean! This is one of my favorite beaches - Swami's. There are 137 stairs that you have to climb down to get to the sand... (we counted!), then you get a nice little workout going back up to your car when you're done... especially if you're holding Sam the whole time - thanks Andrew!
Here are our cousins and the tall cliffs behind them. :)

We also made a trip down to Balboa Park and visited the Reuben H. Fleet Science Exhibit & IMAX theatre. Its a completely hands-on exhibit for kids allowing them to have fun with science, & technology. :) Sammy loved quite a few of the exhibits... this one blew air out of a tube, causing a beach ball to float mid-air. You can really see how long Samuel's hair is getting here, as he's looking down the tube!


I just like this one of Sammy. Caleb is making Sammy smile so big! Sammy had so much fun playing with all three kids, Caleb, Daniel & Betsie. :)

And yes, this is what you think it is! :) We were on our way to the bathtub after a long day of fun, and Sammy decided to stop, play with a toy, and take a poop. I guess you shouldn't leave a baby diaperless for too long! It was really quite funny... I happened to hear him pooping, saw what happened and ran to pick him up. Just after I picked him up, then the second one fell from his cute little bottom at a height of about 4 feet. I'm glad it stopped after that! And I'm very glad that I found him before he discovered it! I guess we'll end it on that note! :) We hope you all are having a wonderful week!

Pushing his own stroller & saying vacuum!

We just got an umbrella stroller for Sam (we'll be travelling in a couple months and our regular stroller is just too big for the trip!) Anyway, Sammy thinks this is his new walker. Here is some video of him pushing it around the house. Also, near the end of the video he says his new favorite word, "vacuum." Listen closely! :) So far, his vocabulary consists of "mama" "dadda" "uh-oh" "no-no-no" and now "vacuum!" Plus, a few other things that we think may be words, but are still not quite sure. He's also started to learn to wink. If we wink at him, he'll squint his eyes, smile, and blink both of them back at us. So cute!

Sam Laughing

Here's about 1 1/2 minutes of Sam laughing and being his cute self. :) Enjoy!


And I love this shirt of his... it reads "conserve water, drink chocolate milk."

But then my Dad pointed out that drinking chocolate milk isn't really conserving water, when you consider all the water it takes to grow the grass that the cow's eat, and water for them to drink, be washed etc.... haha! Oh well, I still love that shirt, chocolate milk, and especially that little boy!
