Carlsbad - Part II.

Here's pictures from the rest of our trip!

Uncle Andy won Peyton over by watching Choo Choo on his iPad.  Never fails!

 Beautiful pink sunset on the balcony:

One night we went swimming.  Peyton loved it.  It got cold, so we went into the kiddie spa...

Here we met a group of about 8 girls age 14/15 yrs.  They were all such beautiful girls, which made this a tad bit cuter.  ;)  ... one girl fell in love with Peyton, then the rest got on board and they all spent about 15 minutes swooning over him.  One of the first questions one asked was how old he was.  Peyton said, "TWO!" all cute and matter-of-factly.  The girls giggled and Peyton loved the attention.  SO, from then on, he answered, "TWO!" to every question they asked him.  When Joan decided to take a pic (good thinking!), one girl suggested everyone show the #2 on their fingers in honor of "Mr #2" aka Peyton.  :)

Uncle Ryan and his girlfriend Amber playing in the arcade:

Sharing the love:

One of our many happy hours.  We got the pita & hummus at the local farmer's market that day.  Yum, I'm drooling as I type!

One evening (over some wine, of course) Joan was complaining that we got called Zonies.  None of us had heard of the term.  Out of the 30 years I've been going to Cali in the summers, I've somehow never heard this term!  We are TOTAL zonies!  And this definition cracked me up.  There were about 10 definitions as crude as this that had us all laughing!


The kid still lines cars up everywhere.  Kinda off topic but, one night we crawled into bed and to our surprise, he was still wide awake.  He scared the crap out of us, imagine being super quiet opening the door, only to hear a very jubilant, "Momma!" as soon as you tip-toe in.  So we ignore him, crawl into bed and he's saying a few words as awake as can be.  Finally he says, "Momma? ... Dadda?  HELLO?!"  OMG we were laughing SO hard.  I wish you could've heard the tone, that's what made it so funny!  Seriously, highlight of our trip it was that funny!

Morning walk down the beach:

All dressed up for dinner! (doesn't he look about 10 years old in this shirt? haha)

Morning walk alone this time.  Always a highlight of the trip.  :)

I love how you can see the milk pouring down and Steve telling me, "He's making a mess."  LOL

Beach day!

Video of Peyton playing:


The last beach day I went boogie boarding for the first time in a few years.  No pics of me though.  That's what happens when you're always the one taking the pictures!

Walking to dinner one night w Uncle Andy:

Funny story: (1st, notice the crowd above watching over, ha!)  Ryan signed up for the ping pong tournament.  We teased him prior about beating the 10 year olds.  There ended up being a handful of grown men (lol) and they needed another player, so then Steve joins.  Ryan and Steve ended up playing each other and then Ryan ended up winning the whole tournament!  It was pretty funny.  He won a towel.  :)

The morning we left, we were scurrying around trying to get packed and out of there.  Peyton loved the luggage cart and ended up hanging outside on it while we were inside packing.  Of course the door was open so we kept an eye on him, but suddenly I start hearing him saying , "HI" to everyone who walked by.  Then he'd sometimes tell them, "BYE" too.  The tone of his voice was so serious and clear, you'd think it was an adult saying it!  Everyone said Hi back and it was so stinking cute how friendly he was being.  I assumed he'd learned how to say Hi to strangers by watching us all do that all week long.  :)))

To be continued...
