July '15

July is a busy month for me.

We started with the 4th of July, but we were all in bed before the fireworks!

This year Zuri and Pedro came to Chicago with me.  It was a short trip but so much fun.  We stayed out late and went to Navy Pier, where Zuri and I rode the ferris wheel.



We had lots of games but Zuri loved playing with the girls on the team.  She had a lot of fun.

Then we came home for a bit then left for San Diego with both kids.  We figured it would be fun.  Not so much.  Zuri was a lot more crabby having Avi there and I only had one team so when they were playing she didn't have other kids to play with.  Avi was crabby in general, which has been the case recently.  I think she was really wanting to walk and so she was constantly frustrated.

We did do a few fun things.  We went to the pier at night and saw people catching fish.  I have never seen so many fish being caught.  This one family let Zuri hold the fish and touch them.  She was a little nervous at first but then we couldn't get her to stop!



We also went to the beach one morning.  Not with the plan of swimming, but just to walk around.  Of course Zuri had other plans!



She is so friendly and found a boy to play with her running in and out of the water.

We also went down to the outlets that bordered Mexico.  Which was interesting, but they had a lot of shops and it was fun to just walk around.  But Avi decided she wanted to PUSH the stroller instead of sitting in it.



And Pedro was interested in the border fence!


The trip was a bit exhausting.

Zuri also had summer school and her favorite day of the summer was having her face painted!

The month flew by!
