We spent the last week in San Diego with my mom's side of the family. We were able to see my mom, my Aunt Fe, Uncle Ernesto, and cousins Mark and Jesse. We also saw my mom's cousin Ester and many of my mom's childhood friends from the Philippines. Surprisingly, Amelia did amazing on the flight out (4.5 hours!) and pretty darn good on the way home. There were other babies on the flight who behaved worse than her so it took the heat off of us. The weather was perfect and it was so fun to watch Grandma Olthoff play with Amelia, they both had a blast. My family out there thinks that Amelia looks very "white", but is confident that her "Asian Beauty" will emerge as she gets older. We also were told many times that she has big ears (she obviously inherited those from Kevin). Good news though - in the Philippines it's said that big ears = long life. So there! ;)
