five months

Just a few pictures to document five months...

Exotic new things to chew on...

Sitting up all by myself...international traveling...

Paris? Milan? Rome? no...Victoria at 5 months old!

Before I turn 6 months old, I became an international traveler! Grandpa Greg and Grandma Leslie planned a trip to Canada before Mom found out she was pregnant with me. Instead of kicking Mom and Dad off the trip, they let us come along for the ride, passport in hand!

We spent the night at Grandpa Greg's for the first time - ever. I slept pretty well but we got up really early! (I mean early...) We jumped in the cars and I got to go on a commercial airplane for the very first time! I did so well on the plane and slept-didn't bug anyone!


We flew into Seattle and I took a nap as we waited for the ferry. How cool-I was on a HUGE boat. Grandpa Greg walked me around the interior of the boat a lot and I was a big hit with the ladies.

We had so much fun in Victoria. Our first day we went to the Fisherman's Wharf which was really close to our hotel. We stopped by Jackson's Ice Cream shoppe (and of course took the obligatory picture) and walked around the wharf. Of course they would name the shoppe after me. I am an international traveler, after all.

I visited my first ever Canadian mall-5 floors of shopping madness...

Where they thought I was stealing sunglasses and kicked me out of the store...(I was really looking for a pair of Versace for the rest of my trip - oh well, their loss)


We took a tour around Victoria in a little harbor ferry. I heard all about the history of Victoria (blah, blah, blah)...

Visited the Parliament building during the day-Grandpa Greg and Grandma Leslie said it's really cool at night (sadly, my parents would have caught me sneak out, so I stayed behind...)

On one of our last days we visited Butchart Gardens. Lot of flowers and stuff. Uncle Greg documented our day on film.

In remembrance of M. J. ...

I got lots of hugs and kisses from family...

Got to ride in my big boy stroller for the very first time!
And was even scouted for a modeling contract for a local restaurant!
And on the way home, I rode in a 12 seater sea plane to Seattle!

All in all, we had so much fun on our trip (even though I cried for 2 hours straight on mom and dad's anniversary...way to kill the mood). I had so much fun getting loved on by everyone.

Thanks Grandpa Greg and Grandma Leslie for making me an international traveler!
