We got back last night. Detroit is a terrible airport. We spent more time there than we wanted. We got in at the farthest gate on A and had to go to the farthest opposite point at the end of B concourse. But they sent us on a wild goose chase by posting the wrong gate number for our flight home. ARGH. Then there was no plane, then no crew, then de-icing. We left for the airport in LA that morning ( where it was 80 degrees) at 8:15 a.m. and finally got home at 11:30 p.m. (where is was 9 degrees and a -4 wind chill). What a change!
It was wonderful to see Claire and hold her. She is such a fun baby. We could really see her personality.
I got to see her in the dress that I made. And it really fit her - I was thrilled. She is sooo close to taking her first step.
We stayed at a great place and this was the view from our balcony:
We went to the Aquarium of the Pacific (along with a million school children). It was fun to see all the exhibits and Claire enjoyed it too.
All the food was very good. (Note to self: start diet today!)
We celebrated Claire's first birthday.
What a great visit!
Now back to stitching.
