Sweet home California...



So, we left Vancouver, WA on Saturday morning. Our flight was great and Naddie did great. She slept through take off and landing and was absolutely fascinated with the inside of the plane.
She is also adjusting quite well to the "new" house and the surroundings. We just finished setting up her room and trying to figure out what theme we are going to decorate it with.
She has met so many new people this past week that even an adult would be overwhelmed.
On the 4th we took her to the Huntington Beach parade (that is the biggest parade west of the Mississippi) and she was absolutely mesmerized by all the commotion.
She also had her first POOL experience. You know, as a parent you have the nightmare that something will go wrong, that life will throw something in your face and than she will hate it forever. And that is what happened!!! Literally!!
We were in the pool for about 5 minutes with lots of adults and kids surrounding us and than, what happens?? A leather football hits her right in the face.
Not me, not our friend Sharon not even the teenager right next to us (who by the way was the original target) but Naddie. I was mad!! However Naddie did not even peep. No cry, no tears. I guess it won’t scar her for life.
She seemed to like the pool and the water and kept splashing herself in the face.So, we will be back.
