Today marks one week that we have been in California. In some respects I cannot believe it's already been a week, but if I think back to all we've done and all that's gone on - it's been a busy week ;) Yesterday, I started off the day with a swim at a nearby gym - they were kind enough to get me a month guest pass for $20 - you really can't beat that. I am extremely pleased to have this convenience nearby! After my swim, I headed back to the parents and we had breakfast and then headed out to 'the market' for some fruit and veggies. We went straight from there to the water park where we met up with Auntie Anita, Uncle Rob and the cousins (Logan, Garrett and Myles) The kids played great even though there was a slight breeze - they were in the water and on the playground and running down the hill.... good fun! Then we had lunch, took naps and finished out the day by helping Grandma weed and plant flowers! 
Today we were on our own, well, we just didn't have cousins to play with since Anita and Rob both worked today. But, today was still eventful. Addison helped Grandma feed the kitties - which is becoming a daily routine and one she looks forward to as well ;) She LOVES the kitties!
However, she's learned that most of them are "scared" (with good reason). After that we had some breakfast and Grandma got out the play dough. I don't think Addison has ever played with play dough before and she just loved it! I would say it occupied her for nearly 2 hours!

I don't think Addison has ever played with play dough before and she just loved it! I would say it occupied her for nearly 2 hours! After play dough, Addison and Grandma picked tomatoes - they each had a bucket and at first Addison's job was to take the stem off of the tomatoes that Grandma picked, but she got bored with that pretty quickly. Then her job became to pick the yellow ones (pear tomatoes) She did pretty well with it, a few not-so-ripe ones were picked but seems like that's the danger in having toddlers do your gardening.
After lunch we just played outside and on the swings...oh, AND in the dirt. I don't understand her fascination with the dirt or picking all the rocks out of the dirt, but I know it's harmless. All of this, of course, led to bathtime. And then to bedtime....
Tomorrow Grandma has chemo for 1 hour and we are spending the day at Auntie Anita's. Auntie Emmy comes up from Santa Barbara tomorrow as well. That's all for now!
