California... Take 2

The second week we were in California Matt came down to join us and enjoy the sun. We headed an hour north and spent the next week in Sierra Madre with Tim, Susie, Toby and Asher. Bella had so much fun with them and all the new toys she got to play with. Here's another picture heavy post!

Hanging out on the pier at Oceanside.

Loving the sun!

Matt and Bella going to explore the water. Bellz couldn't get there fast enough!

Footprints

Sandy feet! She had so much fun!

And back out to the water...

Digging in her toes

SUN!

Hanging out on the beach

Checking out her sandy hands after she found a rock she just HAD to have

It's hard to walk when you're too busy staring at the sand between your toes...

And back out for the third time to wash off their feet

At Tim and Susie's! Bella had so much fun with all the new toys and her new entertainers

California... Take 1

Last month, Bella and I went for a little adventure down to California. Bella was AMAZING on the plane rides (which was a VERY good thing since I was by myself with her). The first week was spent down in Murrieta, visiting Shauna and her family, and all my old roomies who came to visit. Here are a few pics of our first week!

Irv and Melinda Cohen. Love you!

Going to DisneyLand.

Heather and Meg riding the tram

Shauna and Bellz

Trying on a pair of ears.

Her first ride! Not that she'll remember it...

Bella and Heather enjoying a fruity snack

Me and Meg

Stretching her legs

Roomies!

Look at her taking off! She saw a cute boy go by in another stroller... I'm serious.

Taking a break

Meeting Jessie from "Toy Story 2"

Playing at the Cohen's house. She started throwing the toys for their dog so that he would come close enough for her to attack.

Awww.

Oliver the dog and Matt (Shauna's brother) hanging out with Bella

Bella getting ready for bed with Heather

This was the day Shauna and I got up at 3AM!!!! to go shopping after Thanksgiving. Bella decided to wake up 2 hours early (at 6:30am) right when we got home hoping to take a nap... needless to say we were all tired...
