California!

My west coast travels...

We started out in Los Angeles for work, then headed down to San Diego to celebrate with Fara & Steve at their beautiful wedding (and I got to meet Toby & Marvin) and then we went up to San Francisco for more work and I also got to hang out with Caroline again. I LOVE her curls!!

I had a very eventful 3 weeks - I can now roll onto my side, pull myself up holding onto Mommy or Daddy's hands (with a little assistance, but I'm getting there!) I can sit propped up now (yay) and, my favorite accomplishment, I can make raspberries with my lips. The day I learned how to blow out Mommy couldn't stop laughing. I took my already puffy little cheeks and pushed them out as far as they could go and all Mommy heard was a little air coming through my lips, then within a day the raspberries had started, spit everywhere, it's fabulous!! It makes Mommy & Daddy laugh like crazy. It's just another thing to amuse myself with :)

I've loved being on the airplane. We fly Southwest and usually we're luckily enough to get three seats to ourselves so I get to stretch out. I'll hang out on the tray table, in Mommy & Daddy's arms or lie down between them. I loved the sunshine and taking walks to see the beautiful beaches and mountains. Especially the Golden Gate bridge. Mommy & Daddy's favorite place to hang out is the park there. They have pictures pre-(me), Mommy with a baby bump and now all three of us! So here are a bunch of pictures of our recent escapades (believe it or not, these are just the favorites!). Enjoy!
