Eugene & I had a great opportunity to finally take a vacation. This is the first real vacation since our honeymoon four years ago, so it was much needed & much appreciated!
This is basically a photo dump from the first few days of our vacation. If you’re not into lots of cute baby pictures, skip this post. Fair warning. ;)
I was nervous about taking the little one {the very active little one} on her first flight, but to my surprise she was fantastic. She was so excited when we first found our seats, and then happily sat on my lap, slept some, played some, and ate some until we arrived to Florida safely…
She even brushed her teeth a little in the airports…what a sight!
When we arrived at our friend’s house, she was a little shy and not quite herself {tired and stomach ache, I think}, but after a day or so she’s really opened up and relaxed.
We’re blessed to be staying with one of Eugene’s best friends from college. He and his wife also have a one-year-old, so it’s been awesome staying with people who are basically walking through the exact same phase of life as we are right now. The girls have had lots of play time together, and they’ve been getting along great!
The little one didn’t sleep great the first night away, and she woke up pretty early, so Eugene & I took her on a walk in her pjs. We happened upon a cute little park/playground…
Later that day, we took advantage of some great weather and took the girls to the beach. This was the little one’s first experience with the beach & she was a fan for sure! She tried to eat some seashells…
The girls stayed occupied playing in the sand & getting really messy…
Baby toes in the sand. Seriously so cute!
We also have spent some good time in our friends’ pool.
The little one has always been afraid of pools and swimming, but she’s finally overcome her fear! I have a really cute video on instagram of her jumping in, but it didn’t save to my phone, so I’m not sure how I can get it onto my blog. {Suggestions are welcome!} Here are some pictures of our pool time…
We also walked along the beach/pier last night and enjoyed a fish dinner at a fun outdoor restaurant.
The girls loved the live music & all the attention from other people at the restaurant…
We’ve also enjoyed the little daily things together like morning playtime, snack time, bath time…
We’re about halfway through our first family vacation, and it’s been such a great time! {Wondrous things in abundance.}
