Road trip

My dad is off for a few days this week so we all (minus my sister) drove out to Palm Springs to ride the tram.  There's really not much else to do out there but we wanted to take Eggy to see the snow, especially since the weather's been so nice.  And since we're broke saving money, this was our "vacation."
Eggy did pretty good on the car ride.  Mostly because she was eating something every 20 minutes.  She didn't even ask to watch her usual Elmo or Pororo until we were 40 minutes from home.  I was hoping she'd fall asleep in the car but nope.

Riding in the tram

Walking down the path

It was kind of a long way down

First sled ride

Then, she wanted to play on the sled by herself. "No no!  No no!"  sigh.

Yeah, she was so over it by then.  

But after we gave her more food, Eggy was feeling better.  

"Gub!" = gloves.
Yes, I know technically they mittens.

Getting reacquainted with snow

Eggy's snow midget

I don't know if Eggy had any fun.  I think she's still too young to really get it: the tram ride, the snow, the sledding.  And the snow wasn't that great, a little too icy.  So I think we'll wait till she's a little older to take her to the mountains.  We should have just gone to the beach instead.  

Back from Maui!

We got back Thursday night, well really Friday morning but I had a ton of pictures and video to look through before I could post. Gosh, I'm still tired. I thought vacations were supposed to be relaxing. We had a lot of fun though.

Eggy was so good on the flight to Maui. I was pretty nervous about how she would do but she was awesome. She slept the first 2 hours so that helped. Even the people around us told us that she was a good baby. I think they were just happy that she wasn't a screamer.

Anyway, it didn't take long for Eggy to get into vacation mode.

She adjusted to the 2 hour time difference pretty well. (It's been a different story since we got back home though.)

Since Eggy appah and I have already been to Maui a few times before, we didn't really do much touristy stuff. It would have been kind of hard with an infant anyway. Mostly, we laid out by the pool.

And we went to the beach.

Eggy wasn't a big fan of the beach at first. I think the sand freaked her out.

But she got used to it.

But she really liked the pool the best.

Do you know how hard it is to get a baby ready for the pool while you're trying to get yourself together?

It was nice having my sister there to help us out. I think Eggy appreciated her help too. Thanks Eemo!

Other random pictures from our trip....

Our flight home was delayed 5 hours so we didn't get in until 2am! I don't know if it was because of the crazy weather in LA but I'm just glad we all made it back safely. Luckily, Eggy pretty much slept the whole time. She didn't wake up until we had to put her in the car seat.

As much fun as it was, it'll probably be a little while before we take Eggy on vacation again. But I'm glad we all went. Good memories.

Aloha!

We're still in Maui. It's been a lot of fun. I'll be sad to go.

I forgot the USB cable for the camera so I can't upload any pictures. But here's a quick video of Eggy swimming. It's her first time in the pool!

We're off to Maui! Wish us luck on the plane ride. =/

Peace out!
