This is her waiting for the plane. I love this cute little outfit I was able to put together from different sections at Target.
This was the nice man who read to Cali and talked to her when she got tired of me trying to rock her to sleep on the 3 hour flight. She never slept.
Jen brought this cute purse/animal carrier for Cali as a gift (handed down from cousin Abigail).
This is us arriving at Jen's house. Cali likes her cousin Jonah already.
This pic is out of order, but this is my sis in law Jen and 2 of her friends. We went out for cheesecake to celebrate her bday. She didn't know about the get together, I got ahold of her friends and we planned it un-beknownst to her. That was fun;)
I brought my laptop so I could fill e-book orders easily while I was gone. Cali liked to watch her new fave movie, Gigglebellies. She calls it "choo choo" because the first song is about a choo choo.
{pic?}
After staying with Jen and fam, we went to stay with Emily and her fam. This is our dance party.
I like this shot of us;)
Below, Emily's girls and Cali enjoy a little Justin Bieber video. I may or may not have converted my friends and their children to be JB fanatics like me. I shared lots of JB trivia with them (probably too much). I may have scared them.
Uncle Steve kept trying to scare Cali, but she learned to get over it.
my girl! This is on the plane on the way home. We departed at 5pm and she had not taken a nap. I thought FOR SURE she would fall asleep right away, but no...after 3 hours of tears then happiness (and not as many helpful neighbors) she finally conked out the last 30 min. of our flight. It was manageable and I was surprisingly even keeled throughout her mini fits, but I was always able to bring her back in. I was happy about that. As I got off with her sound asleep on my shoulder, I had to unpop the stroller with one hand and one foot (and 2 bags) and laid her in it. She stayed like this til our family picked us up. It was happy to all be together again;)
