San Diego with Josh and Shelli


Quick photo after a long day at the zoo...
Hippo jumping.
Waiting for pandas!
Mom and Dad at dinner.
Went to a restaurant called Extraordinary Desserts...they aren't kidding...Hannah definitely was enjoying the extra-ordinary dessert!
Good food for some GREAT people!

Ocean...

As you can see, Hannah kept close watch on the ocean because it was way too noisy and very scary! Her parents however thoroughly enjoyed the time.
Hannah's version of the ocean! Treats, shades and a chair...could life get much better?
Serenity...
Playing in the sand with Shelli...
Even Shelli in her amazing wet suit couldn't coax this one into the water...but it made for a cute picture. The pacifier was necessary for calming purposes....

Disney!

Playing the piano in Toontown!
The girls with Walt - the creator of what Hannah likes to call "THE MOUSE." Yes we were the crazy people who took our less than 2 year old to Disneyland. Yes, like all the others her age, she lost it at 2PM from exhaustion and complete over stimulation. Yes, we stayed longer so we could see the parade. Derek could have had a better 1st time experience at Disneyland, but we were very 20-month-old oriented. Nonetheless, it was a great family day. P.S. It helps that my brother Josh lives literally 20 minutes! Can't beat that drive!
Watching the parade. Hannah was mesmorized. When it was over, she ran after the street cleaners screaming "The mouse - dance! The mouse - dance!"
Daddy and Hannah at Toontown City Hall!
The Disney characters were fine from a distance...however, up close was another story.

Alcatraz

After a day of touring Fisherman's Wharf and Alcatraz, I was a little bit tired...
Daddy and me on the ferry ride to Alcatraz. My first ride on the Pacific Ocean!

Ice Cream in Gharadelli

Hannah was infatuated with cleaning tables when napkins were available...
Enjoying her mommy's ice crease like she been eating it for years.
And the best part...the cone!
Talkin' to Syd on the way home.
