Today was the day I got to meet my Aunt Dawn and cousin Aiden for the first time! We took this trip to celebrate her 40th birthday, which was today, as well as her surviving breast cancer - lots of great reasons to get the whole family together (something I'm told hasn't happened in several years). Grandma and Grandpa drove in with them from Sacramento in the morning while Auntie Nicole and Uncle Mitra came to our room to play with me. It was so much fun to meet them in our hotel room. You could tell that Auntie Dawn thought I was pretty great - she volunteered to change my diaper and push the stroller right away. I thought she was pretty great - and so was my cousin, who also loved me right away. He was excited to meet "Baby Elliott."After a yummy lunch at a Mexican place near 9th & Irving, we walked to Golden Gate Park to explore a few great attractions. First stop: the De Young Museum's observation tower. Check out these cute pics from above.
Love this picture. Grandma and Grandpa were so happy to see me - and vice versa! :)
Next stop: Check out the art on display around the fountain and take some family photos.
Proud Grandma, Grandpa and their grandsons!
Next stop: California Academy of Sciences. Here I am with the Abbott siblings about to go in.
They all went to the Planetarium while Mommy avoided the screen time exposure and took me to explore the aquarium down below. As you will recall, I LOVE aquariums!
One of our favorite family traditions: smashed pennies!!
Checking out the rainforest biodome!
(I was pretty conked out at this point, but they tell me it was really cool).

On to explore the living roof!
I <3 my aunties!
Next stop: birthday dinner for Aunt Dawn at a delicious vegetarian/gluten free restaurant.
It was a great day celebrating Aunt Dawn and being together with my big family!
As the shirt says, I <3 my Auntie(s)!
