Beach Baby!

Last week we left for a 5 day vacation in San Diego with my family! It was a fun time of relaxing, eating fresh seafood, walking along the coast, enjoying the view of the ocean, and playing in the sand. It was Ellie's first time at the beach and she loved it!! We were so glad Tina was able to come down from San Francisco to visit!! It was a wonderful weekend! Although we are sad our vacation is over, it is always good to get back home!

Ellie's First Haircut

Ellie's hair looked so long in this picture! After cutting it I was a little sad. But she has gotten several compliments on her "cute new do" so I guess it's okay.

Here is the before..

and after.

Ellie's New Carseat!

We finally made the big switch into her new convertible carseat.

She looks pretty comfy .. I think she likes it!

Last time in her infant car seat .. it's been a good one!

Swimming Lessons

At the beginning of June Ellie started her first swimming lessons at the Tech Rec Center. Over the 2 weeks she became familiar with kicking, scooping with her arms, blowing bubbles, crawling out of the pool and just having fun in the water! The last day of lessons she had a blast! She got to show off her new skills to Daddy, float the lazy river, play in the fountains, and even "jump" off the diving board for the first time!! She did great! Such a fun way to start off the summer! Here are some fun pictures to share from her last day of swim classes.

And a few more pictures from the first week of swim lessons.
