Monterey Bay Aquarium

On a whim, we decided to take off and drive to Monterey for part of the long weekend. We stayed the night and spent the next day at the aquarium. The weather was so nice, we could not have asked for much better. The hotel was really pretty and we had a great time..............until about 10:30pm on Monday night. Adrienne woke up and decided to cry the entire night. The only way she would stop crying and sleep is if I was holding her (FYI, this kid does not cuddle. Always sleeps in her crib without a peep and do not, I REPEAT DO NOT hold her. She will not sleep in your arms any other time.) Anyway, we got terrible nights sleep and were tempted to go home early in the morning but thought we should move on and go to the aquarium since it was her birthday. She whined all morning until we got to the A. She was an angel. Until we got in the car to go home. She screamed the whole way home. We were in horrible traffic (road closed due to a fatality) and let's just say Paul and I both agree that her worst night as a newborn was easier than this. We did manage to have some fun on the trip but man oh man, we heard more screaming than we needed to for a lifetime! Here are some pics of the good moments :-)
