A Visit to the Sunshine State


That's right, we just got back from Florida hanging out at a beach condo with Danny, Susan, Emily, Bill and little KK. We had a great time and Drew did wonderful. This trip served to be many firsts for us. It was the first time to travel and fly with Drew. It was the first time for Emily, Bill and KK to meet our little guy and it was our first beach trip as a new family of three!

Danny and Susan loved getting a chance to see Drew again and were nice enough to frequently volunteer to watch him for us if we needed a walk on the beach or to run out for a little bit. What are grandparents for?! KK loved little Drew and enjoyed helping out with him in any way she could. She was eager to pick out his clothes for the day, help change diapers and give baths. I think the cousin relationship between her and Drew she is still a little cloudy on since she told our waitress that he was her little brother. ;)



Most of our days were spent very laid back. The boys were early to rise to see the sun coming up over the water each morning and we often didn't make it out of the condo until around noon. We spent the majority of the day hopping between the beach and the pool. Shark teeth were also of great interest this trip. I think around 80 of them were found while combing the sand on the expansive beach. Danny also got Drew a little "tadpole pool" that he used for sleeping and floating while we were outside.

Despite our returning flight being delayed 7 hours and taking a layover through Miami with an infant, our trip was great!

Drew's first flight!
