penelope is half californian. matt grew up in the burbs of la and most of his family still lives in california. we took penelope to visit the ca folk for christmas.

in old town pasadena on our way to palm springs. this 2 hour road trip was ROUGH on mom. and penelope was done traveling. but it was SO good to see lou and sarah!

back in la, view from the hills of bel air. as in the fresh prince of bel air, bel air.

traveling will never be the same but our new traveling buddy sure is cool. if you are flying with a baby, pack a lot of pacifiers and a lot patience
