Lots of standing, but no walking yet!

1st Big Day at the Beach

This was Julia's 1st Big day at the beach!!! She had been to the beach before, but not to play and surf!! She loves the sand and as you can see loves to crawl on Daddy's surf board. As for the ocean, she got a little too brave at first and crawled right in, the waves kind of scared her, and now she's a little nervous.

Julie meets Julia

Julie stayed with us for almost one year, but she had to return to South Korea a few weeks before Julia was born. She is here visiting one year later... it's great to see her again!!!
