We made an epic journey across town to watch the Blue Angels fly. The eight of us took a train, a very crowded bus, and walked a whole lot to get down to Aquatic Park past Fisherman’s Wharf. Janie did a great job staying close to us and holding on to the stroller and our hands throughout the trip.
We were originally going to head all the way over to Marina Green but the spot we picked on the other side of the hill was just fine for us. We laid down picnic blankets and Peanut and the twins got to stretch out. It was surprising to Mama that he was so happy being flat on the blanket for so long. He just babbled, kicked his legs, and hung out long enough for Mama to eat lunch! His legs got some sun while Mama shaded his face from behind.
Janie used Dada as a chair for part of the time.
Later, he became a cot too.
Peanut and Thomas wore matching outfits today and looked so cute next to each other.
During the latter half of the air show, Peanut fell asleep after getting all bundled up.
Can you find him on the blanket?! Toni and Thomas were also sleeping over by Auntie Jia who is in orange. They were all covered up to shield them from the noise.
The Blue Angels didn’t seem to bother Peanut but it did wake him up toward the end. It was actually Janie that said it was too loud. She hid in the stroller with the sun shade pulled over her for part of the show.
After a long walk home, the babies all got changed and fed at home and then we went out one last time for dinner just down the street.
Janie drew on her Boogie Board while she waited for her soup.
For dinner, she had chicken soup and mashed potatoes. Thomas hung out on Uncle Jason’s lap and looked longingly at uncle’s fried chicken. What a fun but tiring day. We were lucky to have good weather and no mishaps along the way.
