Layla’s Santa suit inspired Brett, her swim instructor, who is also a photographer,  to do an impromptu photo shoot before swim lessons!

The infamous tongue!

Mommy’s kisses always make me smile! 

The infamous tongue strikes again!

On Thursday December 4th we  went to the Downtown Oceanside Christmas tree lighting.  Santa even showed up!  He was escorted in on one of Oceanside’s big red fire trucks.  Layla grabbed Santa’s beard, an huge handful, and wasn’t at all scared by him.

Every year Guy takes his wonderful assistants to Jakes to celebrate their success and the holidays!  This year we had an extra guest who was the main attraction!  Layla slept all the way to Jake’s then slept like an angel all through dinner!  We finally had to wake her up to pass her around the table during dessert!  She looked like a little doll in her black and white dress!

Guy and his girls!!  Surrounded by girls like always!!  He wouldn’t have it any other way!!

Layla and Nancy!

Layla and Hazel!

Layla and Jennifer!

Layla and Lee!

On Saturday November 29th Guy, Nicole, Layla, and I went to the San Diego Zoo!  I was Layla’s first time to the zoo and it was a perfect day to go, all of the animals were our either eating or hanging out and personal!  Guy and Nicole even talked me, (totally afraid of heights) onto the sky buckets!  We had a blast!

Layla and Guy in front of Guy’s favorite, the giraffes, notice Layla wore her giraffe onesie and her super cute bunny hat!

I was showing Layla the elephants who were eating right against the fence to the enclosure!

Giraffes, elephants, and Grizzlie Bears, OH MY!

Zavodny family photo!

And Auntie Nic too!

We even stopped by the petting zoo on our way out!  Little Miss Layla was more interested in the kids than she was the animals!  We can’t wait for out next adventure, she is getting more fun with each and every passing day!  The next time we take her to the zoo maybe she will have a third the fun her parents and auntie had!
