Pismo Beach

Grammy was in LA for a week and asked if we could meet half way. So we headed down the 101 and ended up meeting at Pismo Beach. What a cute little beach town. It had a long wooden pier and a nice sandy beach. Lola found a lot of cool shells including a couple of whole sand dollars. She made sand angels and we bought a huge lolipop at the candy store on the tourist strip. It was windy when we first arrived but the wind died down and it was a very nice day at the beach.

The ZoO!

Fun, what's another word for fun?.. It's hard to describe the fun we have when we go to the zoo. Kiku was very excited to see the Giraffes. Lola is telling her in one picture that the animals go in the pin, not little girls.[gallery]

Let's look at books

Let's look at books together. Lola's girlfriends & their brother came to play. We had a good time playing and at some point they were all sitting together reading books. It was kind of magical to see all the five kids from 1-4 years old looking at books together.

Boyfriend reads her a book!

Wow! How amazing is it that Lola's boyfriend can read her the Bob books. It was sooo sweet to watch her listen to him read to her. I loved it. Hopefully, this is the begining of her being more interested in learning too. She has been telling me that she doesn't want to learn to read because she wants me to always read to her.

Painting

Watercolors are a great way to spend a half hour in the afternoon. The girls get such enjoyment from the sweet pictures they make. Lola is good at telling me what her is in her drawing.

Getting ready for the show

There's a few weeks left before the girls have their show and they are working hard. It's fun to watch them practice. Checking out their moves in the mirror is so cute.

teaching Kiku to city fish

Lola is such a great friend to our little girlfriend Kiku.  She wants her to learn everything that she knows how to do. Here she is teaching her to play fishing.
