It feels so good to be home, even if I am in my parents "new home" in San Antonio. My parents just make me feel at home, relaxed and well comforted. After two flights from Louisville, we got here yesterday afternoon about 4pm. Dreycin did really good, but if i were any further along he could not have been a lap infant. the first flight 1hr 18min he slept and when we took off he held on to my finger so tight it was starting to turn purple, the second flight he was up the entire time and was a little more at east with take off. I managed to carry him, diaper bag, carry on and the stroller. And im a pro after that, back when I found out I was pregnant I decided I needed a lite stroller, did my research and the chicco liteway was the best option. In Babies R Us I closed and opened it while holding Dreycin's hand, so that I knew I could do it with one hand! Because lets face it when you have a toddler, who isnt in their stroller you are holding their hand! One lady was like, you just opened your stroller with one hand and turned to her husband and said "Im done with our stroller, we are getting that stroller." She had a big bulky peg perego, which im pretty sure cost somewhere around $400, the chicco liteway isnt cheap but its about $140 and well worth the use I have gotten out of it so far and will be doing with the next! Which leads me to start questioning, which double stroller will we get? I love the city mini but its $400, and I like the contours double tandem stroller price tag of $275 or so......
ANyways, Dreycin was quiet on the way home from the airport but when we got to my parents house it was like Christmas morning for Dreycin, well easter afternoon anyways. He had a new table, with two new chairs, puzzle, elmo easter basket, candy, chocolate bunny, easter eggs, modeling clay kit with a bag of cookie cutters, bubble wand and bubbles, 4 mini trains from Thomas and a wooden railroad that he can put on the floor or his table, 3 new little tikes foam balls, new plate set and bib. Seriously like christmas morning. He was so excited! And he slept all night in his souped up playard (with comforter lining, 1 blanket, and pillow). This morning we got up around 8am, i woke up at 7am for no reason......(although we are on eastern time vs central time) and I read for 1hr before Dreycin woke up two magazines. I never get to do that, which was nice. So around 10am we left with my dad to go to Sea World here in San Antonio. It was misting, but the rain never lasts here in Texas. We got there and it was not crowded at all, and by the time we watched the first show which was the sea lions and walrus, it had stopped raining. Dreycin loved the shows, after the first one he put on this really sad face and said Bye bye, bye bye. He was really sad to have to leave. We ate lunch, watched the Azul show with dolphins and white beluga whales (probably Dreycin's favorite) He did great, he did nap in his stroller for about 45min then woke up in time to see the Shamu show. We did a few other things, then came home around 5pm. And Dreycin still had tons of energy!
Derek and I decided to celebrate EAster on Saturday afternoon since Dreycin and I would be flying on Easter. We hid the easter eggs in living room/play area and then gave him his basket which had a mini etch a sketch from fisher price, mr potato head, mini playdough set, chocolate easter bunny, brach's jelly chicks and bunnies (only a few in eggs), and 2 dark chocolate dipped peeps. His basket was a mesh soccer ball, it was so cute! And Dreycin really got the hang of looking for eggs and putting them in his basket, while carrying it!
Im really looking forward to being home right now, Derek has taken alot of the stress off of me as far as the move is concerned! Plus im having a small shower this weekend in Dallas( we are going for the weekend), and gonna get to see some of my close friends!
Pictures will have to come later, im tired ;)
