Our last afternoon at the beach

Here we are at Westward Beach in Malibu on our last day in SoCal making sandcastles.

Can't Get Enough of the Beach

Here we are at Manhattan Beach again.

We were here only a few months ago, but just love to visit as often as we can.

Here I am with my cousins Lee and Yan Yan.

We were watching the volleyball tournament,

but I got really sad because my team lost and their team won.

Standing Tall

Look! I'm standing all by myself!

A Typical Day with Sebastien

Sebastien is my very best friend.

We spend at least three or four days a week together and I'm always glad to see him.

Pound a Ball is one of our favorite games as long as we're pounding the balls and not each other.

There's just something about the microwave that entertains us for hours on end.

Academy of Sciences Pre-Opening Party

Today we went to a Pre-Opening Party at the Academy of Sciences for people involved in the design and construction industry. Mommy's office designed the cafe and restaurant so we were able to get a preview before the doors opened. Boy, was it fun! There were fish and birds and penguins and so much more. I was so overstimulated that by the end I was exhausted. When we got to the car I was asleep in seconds.

My favorite exhibit was the penguins. They swim right up to you to say hi.

There was a rainforest with frogs, birds and plants.

Stuffed animals that looked a lot different than the ones I have at home.

And lots of fish.

Strawberry Canyon Pool

Today our moms took us to the pool. We had so much fun!

The Cabin Party

Every year Mom's office has a retreat at her boss's cabin near Jenner.

Last year I wasn't big enough to really enjoy it,

but this year I got to participate in all kinds of activities for the first time!

We went Kayaking!

It was so much fun.... and so relaxing that I fell asleep at the end.

Look at me with Dad. I'm camping for the first time!

And my first time in a hot tub!

Taking a break from fun-filled day to take a nap in the tent.

Here I am with Mom at the cabin dinner.

Baby Class Reunion

Mom and Dad took a Baby Care class with a bunch of other pregnant couples and we decided to have a reunion. Here I am with some of the other kids that were in their bellies just like me.

The Sonoma County Fair!

Kicking Back in Malibu

We had such a great time visiting with Aunt Adele and Uncle Hank.

Here we are playing in their backyard.

We had dinner that night at Paradise Cove Restaurant on the beach.

Look at me having dinner on the beach. How cool is that!

Waiter, check please.

Happy 4th of July!!

The fireworks were so loud (and beautiful),

but I guess I stayed in the car and slept right through it.

Southern California for the 4th of July

We went to the beach again. This time it was Manhattan Beach.

Mom loves the beach so we went down to Southern California for her birthday to get some sun.

We met up with an old friend of Mommy's from College, Johnny and his son Callum.

We had so much fun. I think I love the beach as much as Mommy!

My Birthday Party

This is my first birthday cake and my first birthday wish!

I had so much fun at my party.

It was up in Tilden Park and so many people came to celebrate.

Thanks to everyone who came for making it so special.
