This blog will be a little long... just FYI. So here is what we have done so far!
Ceci's
first flight went really well. We were in the front row and she did
well. Sleeping
her normal and not crying at all. The second flight she slept the whole
time. My parents picked us up and we went to the costa mesa house. It
was so
nice to be back in Cali. We went straight to bed. The next day we woke
up and went to grandma Hazel's house. It was so great for her to meet
Ceci. They
fell in love instantly! Bren and Rol werent able to make it for lunch
so a nice
lunch with my parents and grandma! We drove back to CM and went to visit
Bob and
Marcy. Jim and Kate
came by and everyone was enthralled with Ceci! We got back to CM house
and saw Bren and the kiddos!
The next day was the 4th of July! We got up
and went to the park. Ceci slept for almost the entire time. We all
looked super cute in our 4th of
July outfits! Leto liked it. I loved it. I love the happy family
feeling of the 4th of July. After that we went home to get Leto's
passport
and went to Newport. It wasnt as crazy as the last time i went, but
tonsssss of people.... young people! We couldnt get a hold of Bre
because of all the people so Leto and I decided to go to a .. The Beach
Ball.... we even had to wait to get in, even though it wasnt full at
all. We drank for about 30 minutes then head back to meet my mom. We had
hot dogs and started the fireworks as the sun went down. Ceci did
great. She did not freak out at all! She is used to it. We put Ceci to
bed. On the 5th we drove down to San Clemente to
see Angela and Alison. That was nice but I was super sun burnt from the
day before. It was great to see my friends! That night we went to
an Angles game. It was a long game so we left before the 5th
inning. The angels ended up winning, and I think Ceci enjoyed her first
baseball game!
The next morning, July 6th we left for Vegas. It was
freaking hot! We got to Vegas and checked into our awesome suites. Then
we
left to have our Girls Night Out! It was so much fun! We ate at a
seafood buffet
and then drank and gambled and went to a bar/club. It was a great sissy
night! The next day we went to Circus Circus, which was right next to
our hotel and had the breakfast buffet. It was yummy, but not the
biggest selection... Leto and I escaped after Ceci fell asleep and we
played the Hangover game and Leto $400! Awesome! We went back to our
hotel and went to the pool. Ceci loved it until I dunked her under...
she freaked out! We then went to NYNY and the boys left for the UFC
fight.
We played in the arcade a little and then ate, and headed back to the
hotel. We put the kids to bed and had wine and snacks! The next day we
left for the Hoover Dam.. It was
unbelievably hot and we were there for about 20 minutes. Then we drove
on to Laughlin. We met our parents in the lobby and went to Joe's Crab
shack for dinner. The river was nice but way too hot to do anything. We
got to see Dave Wade too. The next morning we went to an arcade and left
for Dave Wade's house. We drove to Indio and relaxed for the rest of
the day.
Tuesday the 10th Bren and I got to go out with my friends to 2
step Tuesday. It was awesome! I drank toooooo much, but it was so great
to hang with my friends. Its like nothing has changed! The next morning
I was hurting. We went to pump it up with the kids and then swimming at
my parents. Ceci loved the pool! She had so much fun!
Also.... Ceci is moving! Not crawling yet, but its gonna happen very soon! She gets up on all 4s and goes back and forth, then lunges forward. She can get to something if you put it like 2 feet away. It is quite amazing! Ceci has adapted soooo well. She loves Patrick and laughs at him a lot! Bridget is a little jealous and wont let Ceci play with any toys, but she loves to give her kisses. Ceci loves everyone and only really cried with Rol because she was tired the first time she met him. She is really a great baby! The sleeping has been a little rough. We had her sleep in our bed some nights. Its super cute but she is all over the place and its more dificult to sleep. She is so adorable though. We put her in our bed after 7, until she falls asleep again. My dad is in love with her. She is at the perfect age for him!
Here are a few (of the 1000) pics I have taken!
