Shh...Sleep

Had to post because Talia usually doesn't fall asleep in anyone's arms. Before I went to Comic Con San Diego, she napped in my arms for 40 mins. It was a priceless moment for me!
Luckily, McCord had the exact same experience about 3 weeks ago with Talia. Such memories I had to post the pictures. Sweet moments in time. sometimes you wish they would last forever.

San Diego Beach Day 2013

The day after Comic Con we decided to relax on the beach and enjoy San Diego. It was a perfect end to a busy trip. That evening, after the beach, we got all cleaned up and dressed up nice and went out for a steak dinner and cocktails.  The perfect end!
