PFG Pictures for Grandmas

This post is mostly for me and of course all the Grandmas that my kids have :) I just love cute pictures of my kids. Sophie loves all her babies and I caught this on camera one morning. She's giving her baby a hug and kiss!
I don't want to forget how many times we read "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" to Sophie either. She is mostly past this stage but for about a month, we read this book at least 5 times a day to her. After each page with the fruit she would say "hungreeee"...I love books and mostly buy hardcover books for the kids. Unfortunately, Sophie loved this book a little too much and broke the binding. Oh well, hopefully she will spend lots of time with other books.

These last two pictures are of Sophie the first day I pulled her hair back into tiny pigtails. And when I went to take her picture, she actually stopped to give the camera half a smile. That is progress for her.

I couldn't pick which picture I liked best! So both of them made the final cut.

So PFG!

San Diego

We went to our favorite city at the end of May. It was a little cold and it rained part of the time but we still had fun. We love San Diego and of course the beaches. We took the girls to Sea World for two days. This year if you buy a ticket to Sea World, you can upgrade to the season pass for free. (So I guess you can basically buy a season pass for the price of a ticket.) Anyway, one day after we headed back to the car, we found a sea gull perched on top of our car.
Even though it was a bit chilly, we still went to Del Mar, Carlsbad, and Encinitas beaches. If the weather would have been nicer I'm sure we would have hit a few others. Sydney had fun collecting more shells and hunting for sand dollars of course.

We usually end up walking about a 1/4 mile down the beach with the kids. Since the weather wasn't perfect, there wasn't very many people around which was kind of nice.
