this is what the freeway looks like
right before (or after, depending on what way you're going) going into the tunnel
A GIANT sculpture of Neptune. Really cool!
Liliana on the side of Neptune.
A lobster on the Neptune sculpture.
A fish on the sculpture.
That's the hotel we're gonna stay in someday lol.
THE FREAKING OCEAN!!! Prettiest thing I've seen! (Other than my baby doll, of course...)
Liliana LOVED the beach. She loved watching people on the boardwalk but she loved watching the ocean even more! This goofy grin is proof that she is JUST like me!
Again, goofy smiles from loving the beach!
That's right all, we went to the beach!! On Monday I was having one of the worst days ever and I was going to just pack up and go to the beach.... But it is a 3 hour drive and it was already 12:30 by the time I came up with that idea, so we decided to hold off one more day. Yesterday was the best day ever!!! You will not find two happier girls than me and my Liliana at the beach! She LOVED the ocean! She wouldn't even have her bottle because she just wanted to watch the water. She kept laughing and making her little excited noises and flapping her arms. (I'll have to get a video of her excited arm flapping someday... it is sooo funny!) It was a gorgeous day at the beach and a wonderful drive too. Liliana was an angel and let me sing AFI at the top of my lungs (still don't love the new album, FYI) and she only cried when I had to put her back in her car seat to leave the beach. She did NOT want to come home. HINT HINT DEREK. The trees are finally changing colors and that made the drive even better. I still can't believe the forest that we live in. It makes me wish I had some talent for art -- like photography or painting. I'll stick with... well, whatever else I might have a tiny bit of talent for. Haha. Someday we'll go back to the beach and we'll take Derek with us too so he can see what we're so excited about.
In other news....
Well, there isn't really any other news to report. Derek still seems to enjoy his job... and that's pretty much it. Oh, he got all techno-obsessed looking for a new TV for us. We did get it tho so I'm not sure what he's going to obsess over now. Time will tell.... Liliana eats more baby food now which is fun b/c I like watching her faces... but not so fun when its time for a diaper change. I miss the old days of her formula only diet that didn't make me gag. Whoever told us that we wouldn't gag when it was our own baby LIED. She also needs a bath after every meal haha. Good thing she loves baths!
A few other tidbits:
*What the crap... Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize... Really, guys?
*AFI is playing Columbia, MD NEXT FRIDAY and we are GOING. I will owe Donia for eternity for babysitting Liliana!!!
*Shankapotomus is the funniest word, like, ever. I laugh my face off every time I see that commercial with the creepy baby.
*I do not sleep and therefore I cannot be held liable for the things that come out of my mouth, yeah?
Peace out homefrys!
