This post is overdue, I was under the weather for a few days making this post a few days late. Better late than never right?This past weekend we took a roadtrip to LA - despite the fact Drew was still running a 100-degree fever. We had a hotel room, we pre-paid for, and didn't want to miss out on that or quality time with Tata and Abuela. They haven't seen him since Thanksgiving.
The only rule we set was that Tata & Abuela had to visit us. We didn't want Drew to get any other kids sick, which could happen if we went to their house, which usually leads to family coming over to see us. There are simply too many little kids in the family and we didn't want to expose them to Drew, not to mention Drew's immune system is totally shot right now, so we didn't want him to catch anything else.
So Saturday afternoon, Tata & Abuela showed up at the hotel, and we managed to walk around a nearby swap meet until the heat started to get to Drew. After a quick bite to eat it was back to the room for Drew's nap.
Apparently he woke up on the wrong side of the bed, and he was quite the sourpuss for about 30-45 minutes. All he wanted to do.. go swimming. Daddy said no because the pool was crowded... boy the tantrums he was throwing.....
We finally found peace and relief in the lobby... where you ask...
that's right the lobby stairs! Drew and I walked up and down these suckers about 40 times.. seriously. Daddy of course comes at the end when the tantrum is over and done.
After deliberating about what to do next we finally decided on Knott's Berry Farm and walking around the shops. I've never been, so it sounded like a fun thing to do. It ended up being PERFECT. Drew was behaving fairly well except he wasn't in the mood to shop for jams or jellies. His favorite shop.. the Peanuts and Sports store. Oh, and the Chicken Restaurant...
The next day was spent primarily shopping so Daddy could find some Dodger T-Shirts.. as if he doesn't have enough Dodger gear. But whatever. Drew on the otherhand was working pimpmobile driving skills...
Oh and yes, that would be his first official jersey... sporting the Dodger gear. So the shopping trip wasn't only about Daddy.
Glad to hear see you had fun...that tantrum doesn't sound fun. Why is the daddies always seem to come when it's all but blown over? I bet Dave's parents were excited to see him!
