CALIFORNIA: Stingray Catch on Newport Beach Pier

This one's for our nephew Brady who I thought would love to see this. A young boy had just caught a stingray fishing off the Newport Beach Pier. You won't find this in Iowa...maybe the equivalent of catching a snapping turtle!

So, here you go Brady!

CALIFORNIA: Ruby's Diner at Newport Beach Pier

Here we are atop Ruby's Diner at the Newport Beach Pier...Abram is too cute!

CALIFORNIA: Balboa Island Ferry Ride

Here we are riding across the bay on the Balboa Island ferry...so fun!

CALIFORNIA: Huntington Beach Pier!

I forgot to post some videos from our recent trip to California...so here we go!

This video is from the Huntington Beach (Surf City USA)Pier where the waves were awesome just after a storm and Abram loved it! I took a lot of video footage here because it is my favorite place, but decided just to post this one since it is the most action-packed with the waves!

He Loves to Fall & Laugh on Couch!

I randomly stood Abram up last week on our couch to look out the window...and this is what he started doing! Pretty fun(ny), but we have to be careful when standing him up on the couch now because he automatically starts falling and laughing.

Abram's Going Mobile!

First, I want to apologize to all who check these videos out...I've been very delinquent posting new videos the past few months!

Well, Abram is going mobile! He's been wanting to stand up for the past few months and now he's got that down pretty good. Over the past few weeks, since he is pretty confident in standing, he started shuffling along coffee tables and now many other standing objects...as you will see in this video. He's even going from object to object (i.e.- table to couch to toy) without too many falls.

He's also discovered that shaking his head back & forth is pretty fun (he's not saying no), so you'll get a glimpse of that also in this video. Enjoy!
