Fun things to do in SoCal

About two months ago I moved down to Southern California to be with my husband. We live in a medium sized city between Los Angeles and San Diego. I've only been to California once before in my life and it was to go to DISNEY LAND of course! :) So this is the farthest south I've been. It's pretty here and while I miss a few things from Washington state, I really love my new temp home.

Analie loves it too! She really enjoys that because there is SUN we can actually go out and do things. She's still pretty young to get some of the things we can do, but she's learning fast.

I am within walking distance to two parks. It was so funny the first time we took Ana. It was

magical. She was SO excited to climb all over stuff! We live in such a tiny room that I am really glad she has a place to exercise and learn skills like climbing (and more importantly coming DOWN stairs), and running, and dolphin riding.

We also enjoy our beach in Carlsbad. Jeremiah likes to dig and Analie likes to...eat sand. She also enjoys chasing the waves. She is a DAREDEVIL and we really have to watch her. One time a wave completely toppled her over and she blew bubbles in the water while she flailed on her belly. I don't think it's going to be that hard to teach this little lady to swim!
