We're back!

Well, we're back from our amazing trip to California and we couldn't have had a better time. Addison was a champ on the flights both ways and was very flexible with all the traveling in general. She loved the white noise and motion of the plane, so was quiet and calm (or sleeping) during the flights. The flight attendants fawned over her and the people around us hardly knew a baby was there! She was also great on the long car rides from Santa Barbara to Palm Springs and back. She slept through every meal we ate out and was really receptive to the tons of people she met. She loved the ocean and the salt air - she slept like a dream during our stay at the beach house! Addison had many firsts during this trip: first plane ride, first giggle (both with Pam and Allan, doing the same thing - touching her feet to her cheeks while she was laying down), first time seeing the ocean, first dunk underwater in the pool, first time bringing her hands together, first time grasping on to and holding a rattle and first time sleeping 12 hours throught the night! We saw so many friends and relatives, DJ played some great golf, we relaxed, surfed, layed in the sun, had perfect weather, ate great food, enjoyed a spa day...it was fantastic. We left our camera in Santa Barbara, so will post some more pictures soon. Until then, here are a few we do have from the beah house. You can see that Addison enjoyed her sleep very much.
