Beach Playdate with Daddy

Today while I worked, you played with Daddy at Santa Monica Beach. Our hotel was near the Santa Monica Pier which has a carousel, ferris wheel and other rides.
First stop was the swings, of course. You love riding the swings!
Unfortunately the carousel was not open yet, so instead you went on $5 worth of kiddie rides. WHHEEEEE!
On the way back to the hotel, you rode on Daddy's shoulders. He said you were kissing the top of his head; the next minute you had fallen asleep on his head. How cute - too exhausted after a fun morning playing with Daddy!

I finished work early after taking the Santa Monica team out to lunch. When I got back to the hotel, Daddy and you were hanging out in the lobby munching on Pirate's Booty. We went upstairs to the room so that I could change my clothes - you then slipped on my boots. Funny girl!
For dinner we met my high school friend Lisa Cohen and her husband Rob Painter (they got married in LA in August) at a Mexican restaurant called Tlapazola Grill.
Whenever we are in LA, we always have Mexican food and In N'Out burgers because we can't eat them in New York. You enjoyed eating chips and guacamole, but you started having a meltdown towards the end of dinner because you were so tired. Daddy took you outside, and you cried your eyes out because I was still inside with Lisa and Rob. You are having separation anxiety again - poor Sophia! In this photo, can you see your snotty nose and sweaty forehead from crying so hard?
