A few of my favorite pictures from our trip to Florida! Check out the slide show below, too! I've also put a link to our all of our albums on Picasa in the sidebar to the left.
So last week we went to Anna Maria Island, Florida with my parents and Christina. We rented a very nice condo there. Daniel was wonderful the whole trip! We drove (and practically took our entire house! Babies sure have lots of stuff and I don't think there was a thing we didn't use!) and he did so well in the car all that time and even slept well in the hotels on the way. We had beautiful weather the whole week- we're told we were very lucky for this early in the year. We sure loved every bit of the fresh air! My cousin Kim and her husband Steve visited us early in the week and then my Uncle Jeff and Aunt Melody and their kids visited later in the week- it was great for them all to meet Daniel! And Kristin and Erin were so cute with him.
We took lots of walks on the beach. Ben used the baby carrier and Daniel often fell asleep as we walked! It was pretty funny to see his legs flopping around! We did great with the sunscreen- Daniel never burned or even pink! Yay! (I was very worried about this- and slathered that sunscreen on like you wouldn't believe!) We strolled around the neighborhood, too. Daniel got to stand in the sand. He got to go in the pool. He looked too cute in his swimsuit! He wasn't sure what to make of the water- he tolerated it. Mostly just sucked his thumb for comfort! But it was fun to walk him around and the pool was heated so it was great- even I went in, which says a LOT!
Tuesday we went to Orlando to visit Aunt Wendy, see her place, and we even went to Disney World. Daniel met Mickey and Minnie- he did great! We took Daniel on THREE rides- It's a Small World, Haunted Mansion, and Pirates of the Caribbean- and he was so good. He was so cute looking around on It's a Small World. And Aunt Wendy babysat him so mommy and daddy could go on the Space Mountain ride- thank you! We had fun. We also went and shopped around Downtown Disney, too. I scored some cute clothes for Daniel of course!
The rest of the week was spent relaxing at the beach, taking walks, and enjoying the fresh air and the visits from family. I really can't say enough what a good boy and a good sport Daniel was. I'm SO proud of him. He was so easygoing and relaxed and happy, in spite of the different environment and all the crazy things we did and all the people around. Daniel made traveling so nice and easy! Hope we can go back again someday! Though I know each time we travel, it will be different because he will be older and able to do more...so then, who knows?! But for the time, we couldn't have asked for anything to go better! It really was just perfect! So enjoyable!
Enjoy the pictures! :)
