Kari's Visit and the Monterey Bay Aquarium

We made some applesauce chocolate chip cookies because we were going to have some visitors.  Aunt Kari and her family came to visit us.  They were on vacation site seeing San Francisco, Disneyland and San Diego.  So they made a stop to us on their way.  We were pretty happy to see family!

We met up at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.  We both had a rough drive to the aquarium.  Kari's little girl Sadie threw up in the car and Isak threw up in our car!  Gross.  Thankfully, I brought a change of clothes for Isak and I had thrown in some extra wipes.  We went through all the wipes just cleaning up the throw up.  I'm grateful for the prompting to bring extra clothes and wipes and I'm glad I followed it!  

Isak said he was fine after he threw up.  So we continued on our way.  And Isak was just fine the rest of the day.  Phew.  Poor Sadie slept in the stroller and was pretty sick.  :(

It was our first time at the aquarium.  We decided to just buy a year pass in case we had other visitors.  It's been great.  We've enjoyed going and learning at the aquarium.  

Here's some pics:

There's me holding Kira and then Mason, Kari holding Khloe, Brynlee and Jared.  Babies are in the stroller.  Nels took the pic with Isak.

My babies have always loved Kari right away.  Here's Noah getting some snuggles.  

Kira and Isak loved seeing the fish too.  It was pretty crowded, but we still got to see some things.  Slowly, but surely.

I liked watching these cute penguins.

The cool egg chair.

Mason and Isak in the egg.

Kira had a hard time with all the people.  So we went outside for a minute to calm down.  That's why her sweet face is a tad red.

My other favorite part was the jellyfish exhibit.

After the aquarium we ate at our favorite pizza place, Gianni's.  Right before they left we lined up the twins for a pic.  Her twins are 3 months older than ours.  So left to right...Khloe, Kaden, Noah and Sofie.  Aren't they cute!!?

Isak with them.

Brynlee, Mason, Isak and Kira.  Poor Sadie was still sick.  After the pic we went our separate ways.  It was fun to see them.  And we made it through a pretty big outing!
