Vacation-poolside

We just got back from a 9 day vacation in Palm Springs and Disneyland. It was so nice to see some sunshine and warmer temperatures, although cooler than we would have liked (60s), but still nice to see the sun. Nathan was actually able to take a vacation with out working which hasn't happened in about 2 years. We spent the time with my in-laws at their home in Palm Springs for several days, visited with our friends the Riedel's for a day, and spent 2 days in Disneyland.
Most of our time we spent lounging by the pool. We woke up every morning, went and grabbed coffee at my favorite coffee shop in California, The Coffee Bean, headed back to the house and Andrew swam. The first few days he wanted to wear his life jacket, but after a few days he decided that he didn't need it anymore. He got really comfortable in the pool and would even put his face in the water a few times.

Andrew loved helping Papa clean the pool! After it warmed up a bit, he decided to go swimming.

Papa bought Andrew a remote control boat. He had fun watching it go all over the pool. Unfortunately it broke when he sank it. I think he loved playing with it broken more that he loved using the remote control :) Ava enjoyed this float a little more than last trip. She would relax so much in it that she would lay with her feet up behind her, like she was laying on her stomach.

He looked so cute in his sunglasses but didn't like wearing them much.

Andrew did not like being in the tube!

p.s. Unfortunately our lens on our camera broke the first day of our vacation. We brought our small camera but forgot the charger and it didn't have much charge on it. Most of the pictures are from our camera phones, my mother in laws camera and our small camera. Hoping we get our nice camera fixed soon!
