After forgetting to bring Mckayla’s identification for the last plane trip and with the idea from one of the TSA inspection lady, we decided to get Mckayla her own California State ID. It’s much more convenient to carry the ID card than bringing along her passport and/or birth certificfate. I can keep it in my wallet with my own driver’s license. I made an appointment with DMV online but the next available appointment is not until September. Since I had the morning free today until termite inspection at my parents’ house this afternoon, I took Mckayla to DMV in the morning. The line was almost out the door when we got there but it moved pretty fast. Even with the computer problem that shut down everything for about 10-15 minutes, we still managed to finish the entire process in 1.5 hour. There were some technical difficulties with her photo – I had to lift her up high to avoid getting myself in the picture and she was very sleep because it was almost her nap time. Her last identification photo was taken at the Registrar’s Office in San Jose for the passport. She was probably 2-3 weeks old at the time and slept through the entire process. The picture could have been any baby with dark hair. Now I can’t wait to get her ID and see how the picture turned out.
