Children's Museum of San Diego

A few more pictures here of Julia at the San Diego Children's Museum. I cant say it was my favorite place...but it kept Julia entertained for a few hours. My biggest complaint is that the place is not air conditioned! Add that to a day that was over 90 degrees and me being 9 months pregnant and you get the picture of how I felt. I was told they didnt have A/C because they were a "green building". Whatever. :)

Quail Botanical Gardens

I had never heard of this little gem down in Escondido until my friend Joanna introduced me to it a few weeks back. It is a great place for kids - they have a dino-dig, mini train, a place to plant their own little plant, a treehouse (which unfortunately was under repair at the time we went), and every tuesday they have special toddler time with songs, books, & play. Of course there are the actual gardens that you can walk around and enjoy as well. Looking forward to taking Mom here when she comes in a few weeks...

Disneyland w/Grandma and Grandpa

A few weeks back my parents came in for a visit. We decided to head to Disneyland for a 3 day/2 night vacation. We stayed at the Disneyland Hotel which was just a short walk to the park itself - and all Disney, all the time. We all had a blast and Julia is still talking about it. She also still has "fairy dust" (i.e. glitter) in her hair...I cant get it out no matter how hard I try....thanks Tinkerbell.

"Sprinkle"

I got a nice surprise baby shower from all my wonderful SLR friends. I totally fell for their trick and had no clue what was being planned. Even as I walked into the clubhouse, it took a few seconds to sink in. I thought my friend Beckie and I were just going to get a pedicure and then return home - hence my VERY casual outfit. It was great fun and I am so thankful for having such beautiful and generous friends out here in Cali. :) Thanks ladies!
