We had such a fun weekend in San Diego last week! On Friday Nate had to work, so I took Lily to see my cousin, Lindsay, & got to meet her cute twins! Then we went to Seaworld for an hour, then Con Pane, & then Windansea beach. The beach was perfect, it was sunnier than I thought it would be & Lily was super cute, loving watching the waves & putting her little feet in the sand.





Saturday we met Ally at the beach & had such a nice beach morning with her! We relaxed on the sand, walked along the beach, & then Lily took a little nap on me, the best! Then we met up with Ryan, Christina, Julie, & Nicole at the Carlsbad Flower Fields. The flowers were sooo pretty & there were so many rows of them. I think my favorites were the light pink ones but the deep purple ones were really pretty too! We got some wood fired pizza there & then got gelato at this place in Carlsbad owned by an italian couple, so good! After, we were sitting outside by this fountain thing & were getting Lily to laugh by making noises, she did her first real laugh! Then we went to my friend, Lindsey's house & met her cute little girl, Jojo, born just a month before Lily! She was so cute & it was so fun to visit with Lindsey & Sean. I love that we have babies so close in age, future surfers & BYUH roomies! That night Nate & I went on a date to a Grubhub, for some reason burgers, fries, & milkshakes sounded like the best thing & it was really good! Then we did a little shopping & then hot tubbed back at the house. It was such a fun day!!!

We've taken Lily to the beach a few times & she has loved it! She just smiles the whole time!! I am so glad, I think she is going to love the beach just as much as me! I dipped her little feet in the ocean & she was just laughing & smiling so big! Such a cute little beach baby!

This year we did our usual tradition of getting a Christmas tree right after Thanksgiving. We decorated it & make peanut blossoms & Lily got her first pair of Christmas pajamas!

We had Christmas is San Diego this year! It was fun to have Lily & her little cousin Jocelyn together, two 2 month old babies! Lily did good with the drive to San Diego, her first little road trip. My favorite part of Christmas was sitting next to Nate & having Lily nap on me while we all sat around the Christmas tree opening presents. It was the best celebrating Christmas with our little baby! It felt so crazy to have her with us after so many Christmases of wishing we had a little baby!

We were in San Diego about a week & went to see lights at Christmas Card Lane, walked around Balboa Park, went on the Torrey Pines hike down to the beach with Ryan, Christina, & Jocelyn. We also took Lily to get her first Santa pic, she was unimpressed, haha! It was a great Christmas!
