Now on to some stuff I got while in San Diego!
I found this picture (click on link then scroll down through the pictures of Z Gallerie till you see the alligator) of it in the store.
I got several of these while home. I LOVE these. Does anyone else? I had been dreaming about these for years!! Now that I have a picture of the wrapper I can have family mail them to me. If you've not had one let me describe...it's a pastry pocket with chocolate pudding inside. They also come with fruit inside but who likes those?! These have 470 calories each. I don't care.

I'm so excited to share my awesome finds!
This ginormous alligator from Z gallerie.He got his very own suitcase for the ride back (nothing fancy, just a duffel bag). He's almost 6 ft long and the girls love him.

Converse Star Players for kids!!!!
I'm so in love with these shoes! If you know our family you know we all have and love converse! I own 3 pair of this style (Star Player) and had no idea they made them for kids! I found them at Disneyland of all places. At kitson. Zappos has them though.

I got them both a pair.

Next up is the coolest little lamp ever!
I actually got two lamps but the other is in the mail. It's this lamp and it matches the girls Pottery Barn Kids Brooke bedding perfect! Both lamps are from Target. I love target...I think I went there about 6 times while on vacation. I hit up almost every location in and around San Diego. Anyway, the mushroom lamp is a rechargeable night light. You just barely have to tap the top and the light goes on or off and it's made of a silicon material.

My sister-in-law had the clock below that projects the time onto the ceiling or wall. I've seen them before and always wanted one so when Jon saw it and got all excited about it, we went and got ourselves one. I love this thing.
*that's the ceiling you see below. I only have to turn over on my back to see the time. Genius.

The last thing is this travel scale with measuring tape. It's not new, in fact I've had it for many years now but this particular trip it really saved us. I bought so much fabric and other bulky heavy stuff that I needed to know BEFORE I got to the airport whether my bags were over weight and for one suitcase, whether it was too big measurement-wise (the duffle bag with alligator). I've even weighed boxes with this.
I highly recommend this if you come back from trips with more than you went with. The morning we flew, Jon and I had all 4 suitcases lined up and we weighed them them moved stuff around to make each suitcase under 50lbs.
I can't show the fabric I bought because it's being shipped.
I got lots of knits, swiss dots, plaids and some stretch cotton to make pajama shorts for me. I also got a bunch of new patterns. Emily got some new school clothes and they both got lots of toys. They each got a Sea World barbie. This one and this one.

It's good to be home here in Germany although I actually miss the weather in San Diego and I'm shocked I just said that:)
