When we moved in April, my original idea was to get a job ASAP.  Unfortunately that didn't happen quickly.  And then I realized that the boys would be coming soon (today in fact).  With them here, if I got a job, I would have to pay for babysitting/child care and I wouldn't be able to spend that much time with them.  Back in Nebraska, J worked at home, so he could be physically there with the bosy while I was at work.  That's not the situation here.  So I will be holding off on the job hunt until towards the end of July. This means that I will be home everyday with the boys.  I've been making a list of things we must do.  Currently the list includes:

• Getting a library card (for the boys) and weekly trips; summer reading program
• Sky High -- trampoline bounce place
• Great America -- only 10 minutes from the house!
• Aquarium of the Bay in San Francisco
• Alcatraz -- J wants to go with, so this will be a vacation day or weekend trip
• Scavenger hunt/photo scavenger hunt -- I want to do one of these but haven't even started thinking about the clues
• San Jose Giants baseball game?
• Beach trip -- possibly Santa Cruz
• Exploratorium in San Francisco
• Summer camps -- need to get a Sunnyvale account to sign them up
• Most likely daily pool visits
• Get together with an old friend and her kids -- possibly at the Santa Cruz boardwalk or in Fresno (her town)
• Possible bike rides -- if they can get better at riding
