Baby's First Outfits

She is going to be a well-dressed little lady if I have anything to say about it. Steve appreciates the Giants outfit, that will be well-used next summer. We let Blackjack smell one of the outfits and he promptly grabbed it in his mouth to take off with it as his new toy. Hmm, there will be more training in store for him I can see.
One of these even came all the way from Paris, can you guess which one? (Thanks Donna!)

Monterey Trip

Steve took me to Monterey for my birthday weekend. What a great time we had!

First, a hotel right on the beach with amazing views! I woke up to the sun rising over the water one morning, beautiful.

The view.


Perfectly content, eating breakfast while looking out at the view of the bay.


The cool jelly fish at Monterey Bay Aquarium.


The amazing sea horses, probably my favorites! Some of them looked so much like their surroundings it took a while to even find them, crazy. Did you know it's the male sea horse that carries the babies??


Stinky, but cute, sea lions.


We're sailing! The plan had been to go whale watching, but we found out they wouldn't allow expectant mothers, darn. So instead we found a private captain to take us out on his boat for a few hours. It was beautiful out there!


Thought we just might tip over at one point . . .




My little makeshift birthday cake.


Cute Steve, walking the beach one morning.
