High Fives and Fist Bumps

Ever since Matilda began to high five, we tried to take it to the next level.  Now she can finally give some dap with a fist bump.  Of course, "blowing it up" always comes with a "Boom!"  And just like high fives, if she gives one, she has to give one to everybody.  Check out the video of Tilly high-fiving and fist bumping!

First Beach in Monterey

Technically it's not her first beach, but it's the first one she's actually been able to play on and interact with.  Back when she was 3 months old, she sat with us on a beach in Santa Barbara.  This time, she got to walk in the sand and waves.  Check out the photos of our fun time at the beaches of Monterey!

Monterey, CA

This past weekend, Matilda enjoyed the famous Monterey Aquarium and dinner with Andy, Ashleigh, and Olivia.  At the aquarium, Matilda got to see lots of fish and play with all the exhibits.  Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any of the sea otters at the aquarium, but we did see some wild otters in the bay when we ate at Bubba Gump's.  It was a quick trip, but we were happy we made it down to hang out with our friends one more time before they went back across the pond.  We will really miss them and hope we get to see them again soon.  Check out all the pictures of our time in Monterey on the post page.
