Caroline Heads West

Caroline recently took a voyage to California to meet some of Greg's relatives. Here she is - preparing for the flight. Luckily for us, our pilot was never face-down on the ground behind our plane. Well, at least not that we saw.


She did well at the airport and on the flight. Then we got to grammy and grandpa's house. She did really well there too, except that her sleeping could have been better. But she had a great time with her grandparents, and meeting loads of other relatives every day. She squealed at grammy's cat through the windows and got to run around in the backyard. She had fun walking around, chasing bubbles, and kicking the ball.










We had an early morning flight to come home, and here Caroline is checking out the big fake sequoias that they have in the Fresno Yosemite airport. This was a new addition since we had been there last. Mom and Dad had some Starbucks, and Caroline had a banana and milk.








Asleep on the last half of the flight. And it's a good thing too, because it was really turbulent as we were descending over the mountains into Denver. It's usually pretty bumpy, and so it was just as well that Caroline was asleep for that part. Just in case!



That's all of the pictures I had from our trip. So here is a mix of other random pictures from the past month or so.








We call her Popeye when she sticks her pacifier out of the side of her mouth like that.






Last weekend it was nice out and we went over to our park and played a bit. She's still trying to get the hang of the shovel. Yesterday it was very nice again and we took Caroline back to the park. This time we taught her how to go down the kiddie slides. She loved it. She kept saying "up, up" (put her back up on the top) and "more"!






This last picture is of her asking me "please" can she have more chocolate? Notice that little brown line of chocolate under her lip.


Caroline and I went to the zoo last week because it was so nice. She had a good time. Besides looking at the animals, we rode the train and the carousel. We look forward to more fun trips to the zoo. Spring is here, and I'm so glad! Our first music class also ended, but the next one starts in 2 weeks. So that'll be fun too.
In daycare news, Caroline is scheduled to move to the toddler room in May. She's ready to go now, but they have to have a spot open up first. So for now she's teaching the smaller babies all of the tricks of the infant room and getting ready to join her friends in toddlers! And speaking of toddlers, Caroline's little friend, Natalie, is turning 2 tomorrow and so we're looking forward to her birthday party. Lots of fun things going on right now.
Stay tuned for a post in the next week or so with Caroline's stats from her 15-month appointment that she has coming up this Friday. I am NOT looking forward to that! Oh, the screaming...
