The sidewalks of Ocean Beach

Langley loves to walk the sidewalks of Ocean Beach! This is almost an every day event before dinner. She insisted last night that we head to the ocean! And we had to take the baby! Kind of cold and cloudy out there.

Keeping busy this week!

One morning it sprinkled, so I finally got to check out my new rain coat and boots!

We had so much fun at my buddy Sawyer's first birthday party!

I got to eat the yummiest cookies and see my first live band!

Wow, she sure knows how to throw a party! Look at this 'all from scratch' spread!

(my momma was inspired!)

Yahoo for PJ day at signing class!

My friend Abigail came to play one day! We got to have a snack together.

These baby toys are still really cool, even though we are big girls now!

Ocean Beach Walk with the Family

Langley loved taking Grandma and Grandpa down to Ocean Beach

So far Langley isn't one to go running straight into the ocean! She likes to take it slow! Her favorite is to stand right at the edge of the tide and reach her hands in.

Some words of wisdom from mom :D

Nice morning hike at Cabrillo State Park. We will definitely miss this spot!

Langley was practicing her "CHEESE" for the camera! Made for a cute pic with Grandpa!

We had a great time with our visitors! Langley even decided she would say "grandma" and "grandpa" right before we took them to the airport. The g-words have been tricky for her, but sounds like she is starting to figure them out! So fun to see what they learn each day...just like little sponges!

Spending the week with Grandma and Grandpa!

Both Langley and I were both very spoiled for a week with Grandma and Grandpa/Mom and Dad in town! I have lots of pictures of all our fun adventures, and it was kind of hard to narrow them down. My dad had a business trip up in San Luis Obispo, so we all took a roadtrip up there for a couple days. It was gorgeous and a great balance of outdoors and city fun. And many of you know this is Gregory's college town, so he had checking out all his favorite spots, especially restaurants. So we ate and ate and ate...all in honor of him. : D

Langley loved getting to know Hotel life! All she wanted to do was walk...everywhere! The Embassy Suites was such a great place to stay with kids...and so many perks!

Hmmm, Grandma this cocktail looks refreshing!

Big Smiles

We headed out to Montana de Oro State Park for some hiking. Such a beautiful place!

This is the life Mom! Can I have my blankie up here? Please.

The Splash Cafe hit the spot after our hike!

Let me make a big mess with this Chowder!

Checking out Pismo Beach

Morning walk with Grandma to feed the ducks

These were big and loud ducks! Pictures don't really do them justice. I thought they might eat Langley.

The ducks really liked my mom. :D

Weee with Grandma!

Pool time! Gotta love little girl legs!

Driving back to San Diego...Wiped out! (but only for 45 minutes...we weren't that lucky!)

Going for the Gold!

Langley has been going to a gymnastics class each week at the YMCA, and she loves it! Nothing better than burning a little energy in the morning times! And we have so many of our buddies in class too which makes it really fun for me and mom!
