Since it was MLK Day today, Morgan had the day off. Madeleine and I spent the morning at Target getting a few essentials. (Essentials meaning, sunglasses, bathing suits for Madeleine, and other things from the $1 section). I actually had a list of 5 things to get and had to go back because I forgot one of the items. This happens more than I'd like to admit. Morgan never asks for much but, of course when he does, I forget. I blame Madeleine!
While we were out shopping Morgan took Chili Pepper on a hike. When they came home she looked like she had run a marathon! I love when she gets all tired out and actually chills for a few hours. (You see what I did there... Chill: Chili, hahaha)
When Morgan got back we headed down to the beach. It has actually been warm enough to go down and hang. It still amazes me that it's January and we are going to the beach. But in case you guys didn't know the Pacific ocean in COLD! I dip my toes and that's it! Madeleine actually goes out to the edge of the water and gets about waist deep. Today the tides were pretty strong and they knocked her over. She took it like a champ. Nothing a little mommy hugs and apple couldn't fix. The best part about the beach..... It makes her nap like a bear in hibernation!!!
Here are a few pics before the beach. She's such a little diva. She'll only leave the glasses on while inside. Maybe she doesn't want tan lines.....
The little diva did wake up from her "hibernation nap" and was a complete fussy pants. We headed to eat at a Mexican restaurant, El Mariachi. And can I just say how much I miss tex-mex!!!! It was decent but way over priced and nothing to wow our pants off. I'm pretty sure that was are first and only visit. Coming from Austin, I'm kind of a food snob!
On a side note: we learned a hard lesson about what cooked broccoli, left in my husband's lunch sack for over a week smells like. A DEAD ANIMAL!!! It took us 3 days to "sniff it out." I was convinced an animal had died in between the walls and I was ready to pack it up and move. Or burn the house down. Lesson for everybody...check your lunch containers!!!
That's all folks!
