Descanso Gardens

Descanso Gardens - 04

We met Molly and Michael at Descanso Gardens on Sunday.  It’s absolutely beautiful there.  Gigi loved tossing the camellia flowers into this stream.

Molly’s dad was there, too.

Gigi insisted on pushing her own stroller.  She also enjoyed running Michael down with it.

We rode the choo choo.  (Yes, they have a train, too.)

The train ride happened a little past naptime.  She had fun, but she wasn’t too into the post-choo choo photo op.

There are more garden pics here.

By cupcake time, Gigi was worn out.  This is right before we left, which was hours after naptime.

More pics here, if you need ‘em.

Penny made these adorable dresses for the girls.  She even made a little one for Gigi’s (other) baby doll.

Pretty

Pretty Ballerina - 13

These photos don’t really do it justice, but Gigi looked adorable in this ballerina dress yesterday.  Also, we told her she looked pretty, and it was like she was hearing (and understanding) the word for the first time.  You could see that she was proud of her dress and was really enjoying the compliment.

The dress also looked nice with her pink sweater.
