...Go

By the end of our island day, Mimi had HAD IT WITH THE WORLD. As in, give me noodles...thank you, now I will throw myself at the floor screaming. I want to sit there, I will now shriek because you dared lift me. And I, like a total noob, ran around trying to cater to her just to spare everyone....till Super Grandma, you know the one that raise five kids, looked me in the eye and asked why on EARTH I was pandering to her tantrums? Oh. Carry on then, child- I'm going inside for a hot dog.

Luckily, her awesome uncle snuggled up on the couch with her for a full half hour after dinner and read the BFG- she loved all the pictures.

While Mimi did that, Ernie sorted through the collectiong of Very Special Rocks for the day. The girls spent most of the car ride home trading their Special Rocks back and forth, which was totally cute. Wait, I take that back. Ernie was asleep within 45 minutes, and Ming Wai followed soon after. But other than their monster naps, they swapped rocks!

Speaking of Ming Wai, she learned the duplicity of gravel paths and totally biffed it- she was freaking out sad about it for at least 20 minutes. I've never seen her so sad! Grandpa cuddled her and all was right with the world. Have I mentioned these were tired kids by the end of the day?

Self-portrait! I love these things :)
