This was Matthew's first time to fly and he did wondefully!! He entertained others on the plane, slept and ate. He just played on our laps and we even got to relax a little on the plane. I'm not sure how it will be whenever he can walk as I'm sure he won't be so easily contained.

Loving for Mommy
Man, I've got to stretch my legs
We got to Los Angeles and immediately took a trip down to the beach to check out the sand and water. Matthew enjoyed his first sand and step in the Pacific Ocean.
This stuff won't stay in my hand
Walking together
Daddy, don't let go of my hands
Loving on Uncle Tim
We spent alot of time throughout our stay just hanging out together and with Tim and Sam. Their neighbor, who has children, was gracious enough to let us borrow some toys. When we played outside many times we needed a jacket. It was around 68-72 degrees while we were there...not exactly what I planned for. However, we were able to be out and about with Matthew at any time of the day while here at home we were told it was 104 degrees.

We gave him a clementine orange to eat and he devoured it
and made some funny faces while eating it.
Reading books with Aunt Sammie
Future Rockstar
We did several things while we were there...visited an aquarium, lots of beach time, and an Angels vs. Rangers game. All these things were fun for Matthew and he would laugh and squeal with excitement.
Look Mommy, Jellyfish
These eels are weird looking
Thanks Uncle Tim for the fun time
Go Rangers!! Getting ready for the big game
All Smiles
Just soaking it all in
Best Attempt at a Family Photo
The Three Amigos
In the afternoons, it warmed up and we were all able to go out to the beach and get some sun.
Exploring in the sand...he didn't mind it at all
So glad he loves the water and beach
Such fun times
The sand doesn't taste bad either
Good times with Daddy
One morning we went out to try to surf. We both "kind of" got up, but it was fun trying.
Our first vacation was definately different but having that time together was priceless. Matthew adjusted to the time change beautifully there and when we got back. He smiled and laughed alot. David and I got a chance to spend some time together. And most of all, we got to share time with Tim and Sam. It was fun seeing them with Matthew and knowing they love him just as much as we do. Thanks for your hospitality and allowing us to have a great, relaxing time. We look forward to our next trip.
