We spent the week following Easter in CA. Picnic, the park, the pool, the zoo, BBQ, shopping... we did it all, Irvine-style! Here's a random sampling of photos from the week:
Snack time at Castle Park with her buddy Dylan.
Hanging out at Irvine Spectrum.
Someone has the Pearlstein men wrapped around her little finger!
Doug came into town at the end of the week... Here we are all fancied up for Terry & Janelle's wedding!
It's so rare to see us dressed up these days, I'm so glad I remembered to get a photo in the chaos of heading out the door with O crying hysterically and yelling "mommy, hug" because she had figured out that we were leaving her with a babysitter for the first time. Happy to report that despite her initial dramatics, she actually did pretty well. We're definitely going to have to use sitters more often. Freedom! :)
Irvine Park Zoo!
An attempt at a family photo (with a very wiggly child).
BBQ with my best buddies Amy & Jen.
There were chocolate cupcakes at the BBQ, which O was all over. This photo is pretty hideous, but it cracks me up!
I tried to have a little impromptu family photos session in my parent's backyard on our last day there. Doug unfortunately had to leave the day before I did due to school obligations, which is why he's not in any of these pictures.
