We got to go to Monterey for about a day and a half after Christmas. There's nothing like hanging out at the ocean house to make you feel relaxed. :)
 |
| The Monarch butterflies were in season on their way through Monterey, so we stopped by the park to see them. |
 |
| Climbing the whale outside the Natural History Museum. This thing has been there forever - I remember coming to it when I was little. |
 |
| Learning about Monarch butterflies! |
 |
| This kid loves the ocean... even when it's freezing cold! |
 |
 |
| Nora was very concerned about the sand stuck to her feet. |
 |
| Breakfast at First Awakenings - yum! |
 |
| Fisherman's Wharf! |
 |
| The "rocky beach" is our favorite - we love climbing and exploring! |
 |
| Checking out some hermit crabs. |
 |
| Look at my shells, mom! |
 |
| The light was perfect for a good picture of this boy's chocolate eyes. :) |
 |
| Love these cuties. |
 |
| Ghirardelli now serves lemon sorbet - perfect for our milk-free baby girl! |
 |
| This girl has some crazy faces.... just like her brother... and her dad. :) |
 |
| Loving her sorbet. |
 |
| There was a huge mirror right next to our booth. Nora spent about 10 minutes making faces at herself in the mirror. I was cracking up. |
 |
| Singing to herself. |
 |
| What a nut. :) |
