California

Last Wednesday we went on our first family vacation and mine and Jon's first vacation in over a year! Yes we were waaaayyy over do for a little get a way. So we decided that San Diego would be a great place to get away from the heat. It was so nice there.. seriously between 65 and 75 the entire time! We were only going to be there for 3 nights.. Cali is a little expensive :) so we did as much as possible while we were there. I was a little worried about how Olivia would do on the car ride there since she is quite a busy little girl who loves to crawl and move around. But I guess I should have known that my easy going baby would be easy going in this situation too. We didn't hear a peep out of her until we were about 15min away from the hotel. Nice! We stayed at Paradise Point Resort...I highly recommend staying there. It was way nice and it actually reminded me of Hawaii because of all of the trees and flowers that covered the property. Plus it had 5 pools and was right on mission bay. Cant' beat that! We went everywhere while we were there and really enjoyed spending time as a family. It's always nice to come home, but with this heat I'm thinking we will have to get away again soon :)



Olivia playing on the bed. I think she loved how big it was.




Ready for our day at the zoo. Seriously the best zoo! All of the animals were so close that it made it easy for Olivia to see them and enjoy being there.

Olivia staring at the white wolf. This was her reaction to all of the animals..probably trying to figure out what they all were. So cute!

Ready for the pool

She liked splashing dad

Olivia slept with us while we were there..still not sure if that was a good idea or not. But I had to get a picture of how she would sleep. She gave me tons of room but was always snuggled up to Jon. He would move her over in the night but she always found her way back. I thought it was so sweet.

The humidity made her hair curl. My little curly sue.

Mission Beach

She loved crawling and playing in the sand and only tried eating it twice

The water was waayyyy to cold for me and Olivia so we only stuck our feet in. Jon was brave and swam for a little bit
