California--We're baaack!! (1)

Yayyy! I'm so happy to be back in CA for 2 whole weeks!!  Mommy, Grandma and I drove out from Phoenix to housesit for Aunt Linda (Grandma's sister), while they are in Australia and New Zealand!  We arrived just in time for the 4th of July...  Literally just a couple of hours before the fireworks. So in the hustle and bustle of getting unpacked and settled in, mommy didn't take in 4 of July pics of me! :-/  I know, shocking right?!  But even though I wa.s tired from the drive out, I certainly made sure I stayed awake for my first firework show!  Jeremy came over, and we all watched the fireworks go off right in the Back Bay.  My favorites were the sparklers that a bunch of older kids were setting off on the basketball courts right next to us...Those ones didn't make loud, scary noises and were so sparkly!
Here's me getting all clean after our long 6 hour drive!  It's my very first time in a big boy bath without my whale tub!  It's so nice and roomy--I like it!

The next day after getting there, we went down to Huntington Beach!
Check out my brand new jogging stroller Mommy got me right before our trip!! It's a Bumbleride Indie jogging stroller!  I think mommy did more research buying this stroller than she ever did buying a car! ;) But boy, what a smooth ride! I love it!!

Mommy's dream bike--$3,000 bike covered in Swarovski crystals <3
The next day, we went up to Corona del Mar and met Jeremy on his lunch break for a beautiful picnic lunch!


Pardon my turkey face ;)

Digging right into everyone's food!

Checkin out the cool view of the leaves on the trees with Grandma
After our picnic lunch, mommy and I made good use out of Aunt Linda's hammock in the backyard!  We played, snuggled, and then finally fell asleep for a nice afternoon nap in the California breeze.  We layed out there for a good 2 hours when the sprinklers finally came on and woke us up!  Nothin like some cold water on your tushy to get ya movin!!


I'm ready for my close up

Feeties!

Sleepy boy




Zzzzz...
After our nice nap, I was definitely ready for some playtime!
Just like at home, we put a blanket down, spread all my toys out and Ta da! My own little play area!

I love reading books about big trucks!

Cheese!

Hi Grandma! I like your new Brazillian blow out!
First thing in the morning and I'm already bein a goof ball!
What? You mean this try isn't a leg rest??

Lets see if I can pick up any of these puffs with my toes!!
Out and about in Laguna Beach!
We originally made the trip to Laguna to take a "mommy and me" yoga class like we do back home that mommy found online...We spent several minutes trying to find the yoga studio, only to discover that we were standing right in it...Well, what was once a yoga studio, but had since been converted into a bike shop! Nice mom! You might wanna try calling ahead next time! Just a thought! ;)
Breakfast at Anastasias

Breakfast for mommy and Grandma...naptime for me!

After breakfast and shopping in Laguna, mommy and Grandma took me to play at the beach in Corona del Mar!
Oooh! Hello sand!  I have missed you so!

The sandman is baaaack!

Mommy just loves her beach baby!!

Water + sand = a darn good time!

I sure enjoyed playing with the water bucket!

I love me some Grandma time!

Grandma attempting to show me how to use a shovel...but I had some other things in mind!

Soakin it all in

Here comes the waterfall!!

Mommy and Grandma would go get the water bucket filled up, and the second they got back with it I would dump it alllll over me! 

I'm king of the worllllllld!
Just hangin out at the house in Newport
Balancing act--my new trick!  I seriously think I can walk now ;)

We spent as much time outdoors as possible!

Soakin up that cool CA weather!

Sailor boy!!
