Wedding In LA

K took her second trip on a plane. This time to Pasadena, LA to attend Uncle Fred and Auntie Jen's wedding. K was watching as her plane just got to the gate.

Daddy's strategy when he books a flight is to book an aisle and window seat in the back of the plane hoping no one would sit next to us, so K could have her own seat. His plan worked. No one sat in the middle of us.  Right when the plane took off, K was eating a rice cracker, dropped it on the floor and fell asleep the next minute. The sounds of the plane must be soothing to her. She lied on mommy and had room to stretch out her legs.

When we arrived in LA, K's uncle and aunties were staying at the same hotel. She headed up to see them and partied in Uncle Larry's room.

 Uncle Larry, Uncle Joey, Auntie Mel and Uncle Dan showed K a good time by tossing and swinging her on the sheets.



Uncle Fred selected a great location for the wedding. It was right in the middle of downtown. On Saturday before the wedding right across the street from the hotel, Mommy discovered Polka Dot Baby. This is a gigantic playroom for kids. It had more toys than Mommy has ever seen, books to read, couches for parents to relax and tons of things for kids to do. It opened in October so everything was so new and clean. They had a promotion going on- $8 admission for kids. Parents were free.

Inside was even a slide. Daddy and K were getting ready to go down.

K loved it and kept saying and signing more, more!!

She played in the kitchen and washed her hands and dishes.

 K met a new friend Melanie and found out her Mommy use to live in the Bay Area and is a big Giants fan.


There was an indoor swing.

Another cool thing about the place was they let us bring food and had tables for kids to eat on. PF Chang's was located upstairs, so Daddy got take out of lettuce cups, noodles and steamed veggies. K stayed for 2 hours in the playroom and it was the best $8 dollars that Mommy ever spent!!

After the playroom, K took a nap and changed and headed to the church. In the pews, she sat on Auntie Andrea's lap and flipped through scripture readings. K wasn't too quiet during the ceremony. She would giggle and say "uh oh."

Auntie Andrea took K up and down the steps the church. K had so much fun. They both got a work out.

Introducing Mr. & Mrs. Lee. Excuse the ravioli sauce around K's mouth which was served for dinner.

Family photo. Too bad K is not looking at the camera.


K says thank you Auntie Andrea for watching me! I hope to play with you again soon! Thanks also to all the other auntie and uncles (Dan, Christine, Mel) who watched K. It was nice to have helpers!

K's aunties and uncles took her with them to have some fun in the photo booth.


The next day K had to leave LA early.  Daddy had a work event in Monterey that same day. K discovered pockets and wanted to put her hands in them all the time.  Here she has boarded the air plane and was waiting to take off and go home. Congrats again Uncle Fred and Auntie Jen!
