As a side not- why has nobody ever said that California is not warm enough to swim in a non-heated pool?! I tried taking Tripp in a couple of times and EVERY SINGLE TIME he started shivering and we had to leave. It was cold! Even I didn't want to swim! Obviously, this does not apply to everywhere in California, but coastal (where you always see pictures of girls swimming in bikinis...) is not warm enough to swim! At least not for me and Tripp :)
Anyways, We did a little sight seeing. First we took a stroll down Hollywood Blvd and saw some of our favorite stars:

That day we also drove to see the Hollywood sign and the LA temple.

| Tripp fell asleep and we didn't want to wake him up for a hike to the sign.. so we settled for a picture from the car :) |
It was a long long day for the little guy but he did great and really enjoyed being in the sunshine!
Here's a photo dump of Tripp at 8 months old!!!

| We bought this map because our whole place was concrete floors... This was his daily activity! |

| Watching for dogs :) |

| Poolside selfies |
 |
| Almond Milk! His favorite... until we realized it was giving him stomach aches and keeping him up all night :/ |
 |
| Somebody was supposed to be sleeping... |
 |
| Every mom does it at least once, right?! He would have made a beautiful girl ;) |

| Our big boy eater! |
At this point in life, Tripp loved to make the spitting sound with his tongue, eat whatever we were eating for dinner, crawling EVERYWHERE and NOT sleeping through the night... He was still waking up at least once a night to eat, cuddle and then would go back to sleep. We love this little guy!
