About an hour on the road, she threw up her snacks. Lovely. Nothing like puke in the car...on a road trip. So, we clean her up, change her clothes, roll the windows down for a bit, and keep on going. We stop to eat lunch, Makayla didn't eat a whole lot, drank some apple juice, and that's about it. Another 40 minutes later, it all came up...AGAIN!! This is the third time now, if you are keeping track. I couldn't believe it. This is the one and ONLY time she has been sick to her stomach, and of course it's the worst possible day it could happen. We finally reach family's house in Vegas for an overnight stop, and she had some chicken broth, and a cookie...which I didn't know about till later. Apparently her little cousin handed her one, and of course she ate it. But she kept it down. We later found out that my brother's little boy must have had the same bug, and threw up twice in their car on their way down to Vegas too. Sad.
After that, it was smooth sailing! Played at the beach the next day, and then got on the cruise ship the day after that.
A full 4 days of stuffing our faces full of delicious food...mmm. We went Parasailing on Catalina Island, and played in the freezing cold water, We saw all sorts of interesting things in Catalina and Ensenada, including sea lions, armed men outside our ship window, MC hammer pants and cut off t-shirt on an adult male, she-mullets, scary bathing suits...etc.
After the cruise, we played at Knottsberry Farm for FREE!! Woohoo! (thanks Fire/police special day!) I couldn't ride alot of the rides, I went on a couple, but Jason rode alot of them with my brothers.
We then found the most AWESOME Mexican restaurant right across from our hotel. Cazadores I think is what it was called. It was amazing. I really really really wish they had a place in UT. But that might be a bad thing, cause I would eat there way too often.
Then we drove home. A very uneventful looong drive. We stopped in St. George to break up the drive. Got a little Christmas shopping done while we were there.
But it does feel so good to be home, and start getting back into a routine.

So jealous. And boy do I miss Mexican food. Also, jealous of the way that your pregnancies don't show in your face. My face swells up like a beach ball in the first ten minutes.
I hate that you can't ride the rides while pregnant... I went to Disneyland 7 weeks...to be safe I rode nothing w/ the 'warnings'.... A) dead give away when it was still a secret, and B) boo!
haha...yeah, I asked my doctor what I could and couldn't ride, and she said to just make sure it was nothing with too high speeds, and fast starts/stops. So the big coasters were out. I just did the log ride, and one that was like rattlesnake rapids. Water rides are pretty safe. Even though they had a "no pregnant women" sign...hehe.
