Wild Animal Park

So, we went to the SD Wild Animal Park - it was really cool but a bit old for Abbie.

Even James needed a nap!

A family picture - the elephants were supposed to be in the backround but they didn't cooperate

Checking out the Gorillas!

San Diego Beach

BRRRRR....ok so it wasn't beach weather but who can go to San Diego and not go to the beach. We were the only ones camped out on the beach. Abbie enjoyed looking for shells and rocks with Daddy.

Look mom - a big rock!

Abbie's bucket is filled with more rocks than shells but she is having fun!

At the playground after the beach.

The Playground in Del Mar

How bad is life when you are on a swing with ocean right behind you?

Baby James (oh and Abbie's love affair with him is over - he now moves and tries to touch her stuff.) Oh well.

Playing with a kite - the negotiations

Sunset in San Diego

Can you guess who is Abbie and who is Caroline? It's amazing how many times we are asked if they are twins.

Pink Baby is a new arm fixture for Abbie - it goes everywhere with us.

San Diego Part 1

With winter showing no sign of leaving we decided to get away for a few days and visit old friends in San Diego. Caroline and Abbie were the best of friends in San Francisco so it would be interesting to see how they would do when they saw each other after 4 months apart. Well, it was like we never left...

At the San Deigo Zoo

With mommy at the zoo!
Abbie's favorite animal of the day was the Polar Bear (and that's because she was given a book about them from Caroline that we read very often.)

Checking out the View

Abbie's favorite spot is at this window in the dining room. She loves to pull up a chair to climb up and check out the neighborhood.

Megan's Visit

Anne and Megan came to visit us for a few days. They are friends from San Francisco who moved to Syracuse. It was so nice to see old friends and we had lots of fun together. We went to the Boston Children's Museum. That was lots of fun!
