Florida Trip--Day One

I have decided that instead of doing the biggest post EVER I will break up our amazing Florida trip into a post about each day.  It's just easier on my mind and yours that way!

We traveled down to Florida on April 20th for a part-beach-part-Disney/Orlando trip with my mom and sister.  Our flight on Saturday was to Tampa so that we would have a pretty short drive to Treasure Island Beach.  The flight left at about 2pm and was both Audrey and Parker's first airplane ride ever!

 

Ready to go!  


The backpack was just too cute.


They both did so good.  We had the iPad for Parker, and my goal was to nurse Audrey to sleep and have her sleep as much of the flight as possible.  The plan worked out great.  Parker played with the iPad almost the whole time, and Audrey slept almost the whole time.  She actually wasn't feeling very good and had a fever of about 101.3, but with the exception of a few small cries, she did great!

One funny line from Parker as we were waiting for the plane to take off--"Are we ready to BLAST OFF yet??" (or something similar to that--my memory is escaping me!)  We were all laughing hysterically. 










Poor bebe.  Seriously.....was not feeling so hot!  We gave her Advil literally right after we got off the plane.  She did much better after that!

We got the rental van, picked up a pizza and some salad, and finally arrived at the hotel!  



We decided to pack light for this trip.  haha!

After we ate our fab dinner (seriously such good pizza), we headed down to the beach for an evening playground session.  Parker was sooooo excited for a new playground!






Apparently Ryan was pretty excited, too!  



Once we were finished on the beach, we headed back and the kids took their first ever bath together! 






Can't believe this all happened over a week ago--it seems like just yesterday!
