Today we took another family trip. David and I took Katie to the beach for her first time! I think we were more excited than she was. We were telling her all week, "you're gonna go to the beach on Sunday." It was an hour and 15 minute drive, both ways. Katie slept the entire time. The weather was good beach weather. It was pretty hot out, but also cold breezes. We had a nice time. When we first got there, my Mom was just leaving to pick up some clients to take home (she takes kids to visit their real parents), so she let us have her parking spot. That was good, because the parking lot was packed, and we couldn't find any spots on the street either. We got changed in the bathroom, and then we took her to the ocean. She did NOT like the water! haha. I think it just may have been too cold for her, because I know it was too cold for me. I didn't get wet past my knees haha. Katie was so cute though. I dressed her in a cute summer outfit that her Aunts Mary and Desiree bought her for. And she was finally able to wear the bathing suit Desiree bought her for Christmas. Katie looked so cute in it :) After about 30 minutes of hoping she'd get used to the water we gave up. We took another trip to the bathroom to get changed back into our normal clothes. I didn't want to walk around in my bathing suit all day, I'm kind of shy! lol. After we changed we walked back to the car to get rid of the wet clothes and to get her stroller. We went to eat on the pier at a restraunt called Ruby's Diner. I've been there before, but I think this was David's first time to Seal Beach. David liked the food a lot. I told him we'll have to try a new restraunt every time we go, because they all looked so good to us! Yes, I plan to keep going, whether Katie likes the water or not. We can at least walk around and play in the sand, enjoying the day. After we ate we walked along the shops and I found 2 cute frames that were on sale. David picked out one to put a picture of him and Katie in, and I got one for a picture of me and Katie. I can't wait to develop my pictures :) All in all the day was fun! I can't wait to go again. I love spending time with my new family. I love my WHOLE family of course! But it's always nice to go just David, Katie, and me :) Here are some pics. Bare with me if I post too many, I'm just excited about her first trip to the beach.

lol. her expressions crack me up. I like the one of her staring skeptically at the ocean and staring at the menu. LOL.
It wont let me clicky the piccys :(, its looks like you guys had a ball.
I wonder why my pics won't enlarge? Am I doing something wrong? :/ Sucks.
You can't move them. If you let them insert and leave them there, you can enlarge, but if you move them, they lose their link
