For fall break, Clint, Parker, and I took a trip to California to visit my mom and step dad. We went to the beach twice, checked out IKEA, went to the park, and played!
Our flight left at 6 am so we let Parker sleep in his clothes for the plane so we wouldn't have to mess with getting him dressed! He slept for the first 2 hours and then we had a short layover on Phoenix. The second flight was slightly delayed once we boarded so he chowed down on an apple and a bazillion other snacks! He was so good on the plane though!
He loved my mom's dog Luna.

We visited an auto museum and got to see the Batmobile!
His favorite spot at mom's is the big window seat!
Getting sleepy at the beach!
We went to the dog beach so he enjoyed seeing all the dogs run around like crazbos!

He loved playing with the bubbles.
He also enjoyed the water table...and flicking water everywhere!
He liked walking Luna.

breakfast by the window
too cool for Cali
He loved Mercury...except when he got a bite!
We made sure that he didn't take a nap before getting to the airport...so he was pretty tired before we got on the plane! But it worked out because he took a nice long nap!
We had a bunch of fun but recovering from a trip was much harder this time! Boy do toddlers need a schedule and naps!
This post is a little overdue! Last week Clint, and I took Parker on his first vacation! We went to Long beach to visit my mom and stepdad. My sister also flew down to visit! I was a little nervous taking Parker on his first plane ride but luckily we had nonstop flights and an empty seat in our row on both planes! Parker was also a very good boy :) We didn't too many touristy things since he's so young but Disneyland isn't too far in our future :)
