New Hospital Celebration


We had an awesome busy Saturday!  Oliver hung out with Grammie and Grandpa in the morning while Mommy took a Y break.  Then we were off to the library and open gym at the Escondido Y!  We rested a bit and then went on a special adventure!


We went to a community event!  A celebration of the 
new Palomar Hospital that will open on August 19th.  

We had a discussion about what a community it on the
way there.  Mommy also wanted Oliver to visit the hospital
celebration because he has been watching it be built for the
past three years that we have lived in Escondido!  

We decided to take the shuttle bus from Cal State San Marcos.
Oliver likes to see Mommy's old school.


It has grown a lot since she graduated, ten years ago!
(The building on the left is the library.  That wasn't
finished yet when Mommy studied there.  She would
like to go back on a field trip to check it out!)

The shuttle bus system was a mess!
We waited in line for over an hour!  
Oliver was a bit fidgety.

We didn't give up on our wait though.
Oliver really wanted to take the shuttle and
we both wanted to check out the new hospital!

Oliver sat on Mommy's lap int the front seat!

Finally there!

Wow!

There were a lot of healthcare booths and information.
Also free food.  After Oliver ate a hot dog, he got 
his first snow cone.  

Eating his snow cone.  
(Rock.)

Then we waited in line for our tour of the inside of the 
11 story hospital and got to see two newscasters!

Our Tour:







It has been pretty amazing to see it 
being built!




ER Room.

Nurses Station.

 Pneumatic Tube.


Trauma room.





Pretty neat roof top.  We couldn't go out though.

After the tour Oliver played in the kids area!  He got
to do some gymnastics, go inside an ambulance, and
see some police vehicles!


News channel at the Hospital giving us lots of
information.  Over 10,000 people visited the new hospital.
Crazy!  We enjoyed learning about the new hospital!

Friday

Yippie it's Friday!  Oliver came home a little after noon today.  Oliver kept himself busy with some projects and he helped Mommy a bit with the babies.

We are ready for a nice weekend together!

Mommy got Oliver his own tape.  He found it in her
desk drawer.  This is what he decided to do with it.
No comment.

Spying on Mommy while she cleaned up dishes,
or bottles, or high chair trays. 
(Oh, Mommy is tired tonight!)



We had some babies over for the night so Mommy,
Oliver, and one of the babies ran an errand to pick up
some milk and we cruised Grand one time.

It was nice getting out of the house for a little bit!
(Mommy really likes adventures, even if they are only
for a few minutes and close to home.)


After the babies went to bed we watched a few snippets
of the Olympic Ceremony on our computer!

Yeah for Summer Olympics!!!

Tuesday


Oliver had a really nice day at preschool.  This is his last week at the Appleby preschool, next week he will start attending the Y at his elementary school!  He will be playing with other pre-kindergartners and grade schoolers hopefully slowly getting adjusted to his new school!  Oliver is a little nervous and a little excited at the same time!  (So is Mommy!)

We had a nice together evening!
Oliver's special hallway.

Showing Mommy something....

Fish!

We stopped at the Farmer's Market.  
So, we visited our Pirate.  
(Cute!)

(Mommy getting a hug from her pirate.)


Checking out tomatoes! 

Yums!


We got dinner at the Farmer's Market, squash blossom, chicken, 
and regular cheese quesadillas!

We found a quite spot to eat!  Mommy
tried to get Oliver to try hers, the squash was
really yummy.  Oliver didn't want any.

We ate under this neat sign/building!

Happy Tuesday!
