Summer Days

This past week we tried to keep busy with various activities...here are a few photos of Juila.


Feeding ducks at the lake.


Making Grasshopper Brownies with mommy - baking is one of our favorite activities because it involves licking batter and bowls full of yummy-ness.


Julia asleep after a long day - love this picture!


At Sealife Aquarium

Daddy Doll

There are so many companies out there doing great things for us military families. One of them is the San Diego chapter of the Red Cross. They are providing "Hug a Hero Dolls" aka. Daddy Dolls for small children of deployed service members. Julia received hers before daddy left and there we also have one for the new baby when he arrives. Here is a picture of Julia and her daddy doll.

My mother-in-law is in town for a nice weeklong visit. Yesterday we spent lying low and hung out in the backyard in what Julia calls her "tiny pool". After awhile Harley wanted in on the action and ended up looking like a drowned rat - but he had just as much fun as the rest of us - if not more! Then Julia decided that she wanted to be a dog too and fetch her toys from the pool as well....

Last weekend we went to SeaLife Aquarium with Joanna and Jackson. Here are a few pictures from the trip. It is attached to Legoland and we tried to go enjoy a bit of that as well...but Legoland on a Saturday afternoon in the summertime is NO fun. So we went and ate at Rubios instead!
