California Trip Part 2 - Orange County 7/18-7/21

Sunday, we flew down to Orange County to spend more time with family and friends! It was so great to see everyone and the weather was perfect... we can't wait to make another trip out here. After a long nap for Mommy, our first stop was a nearby outdoor mall, where Aaron became fascinated by fountains and koi fish. :)

Saying "hi" to the fish!

The next morning, Daddy, Nana and Yeye took Aaron for a walk up the hill to enjoy the weather and views. Afterwards, Aaron played with Xiao Yigong for hours! Both appeared equally entertained. :)

On Monday, we spent the afternoon with Auntie Nancy, who Aaron was very excited to meet for the first time. :) Hope we get to see you again soon!!!

The remainder of the trip was spent with family and we had a wonderful time! On our last day in Orange County, we even made it to the beach. Aaron didn't seem to like it at first (the water was pretty cold) but seemed to have fun after a while. :)

Notice his raised legs :)

In this video, Andrew plays the carefree and fun dad, while I voice the overprotective
and crazy mom...! Aaron, naturally, is the adorable and confused baby, who does not appear
to be having fun. :)

Making a new friend... for some reason, older kids always want to touch
his feet! So cute...

One last goodbye to Yeye and Nana

It was a great first family trip. We had fun, relaxed and Aaron got to enjoy lots of new things. He was a champ on the planes as you can see from the photo above! He slept almost the whole way back to Chicago. Thanks everyone for fun times and memories. :) Please come visit us when you can!!
