Monday: coming home

We made it home.

Phew.

Isaac started with a rough time on the airplane...he wouldn't sit still.  We finally took off and so I gave him some baby food in a juicebox type container.  It was really clean the last two times we used it.

It was not clean this time.  But...Isaac finally contented himself by playing with the burp cloth I got out to blot things off.  And then Ben finally got him to sleep and he slept most of the way.

See all the orange?

Although Florida was really nice, it's also nice to be home.  Isaac and I took good naps this afternoon.  Flurry was happy to see all of us.

Too bad we have to go back to work tomorrow.  I'm really afraid I'm going to forget to set my alarm and Isaac will decide to sleep in.

More Florida

I got so into relaxing during Florida I didn't do a very good job of posting.  But here are a few more photos that were taken...

On the boat.

Besides going in the hot tub, Isaac's favorite activity was going in and out of the door.  Seriously.  He did it for hours whenever the door was open.  And it was really funny to watch, because in order to not hurt himself he had to take a giant step/crawl over the bottom.

And splashing.

Saturday: Florida

We've been having a good time down here relaxing. Isaac has spent quite a bit of time playing with the ducks in the pool. Although seen here in the big pool, we've often warmed up the hot tub and played in there. Isaac can walk on the seat and play with the ducks, and it seems to work a little bit better. And I don't get cold.



Today we also went on a boat ride to the Bubble room. They have delicious desserts!

Wednesday: made it

Today we made it to Florida! The plane ride wasn't terrible, but it was far from great. Isaac was tired but couldn't get comfortable to sleep for the first three-quarters of the trip.

But we made it! We played in the pool and ate some gelato and played with the ducks.

My quote of the day: "You didn't finish eating your breakfast banana so you can't eat your book."

Tuesday: hair and video games

Here's the conversation I had with Isaac this morning:

"Isaac, don't pull mom's hair."
Isaac points to his hair.
"Good job, that's your hair!
You can pull your hair."
Isaac points to his hair.
"Good job!  That's your hair.
But you can't pull mom's."

I'm not sure that I got the point across very effectively.

*********************************************************************
Isaac found a new video game to play.

(It's the baby monitor.  The screen lights up when he pushes some buttons and there are several buttons to push.  It was THE game of the afternoon.)

Monday: Last night

Last night was a little rough.  Isaac's been fighting a runny nose for a while now, and last night it just seemed to get the better of him.

Of course, I had a hard time falling to sleep in between.  And then I was almost asleep and I smelled something burning.  Instantly I was awake, and decided that nothing was burning...I had just had a dream smell.  But that was another 20 minutes before I could get to sleep again...periodically smelling the air, making sure that nothing was burning.  (Does anyone else ever have that?  It has happened to me a few times now...and it sure seems real.)

And the conversation of the day:
Amanda: "Isaac, your tag is sticking out of your pants."
Isaac: "WWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!"
Isaac runs to Amanda for a hug.

Hi

Autumn and I say hi from outside the nursery door. It turns out that I have no apps for kids on my phone right now, but she is enjoying watching me type. What else shall we talk about right now? The wall we are looking at is purple. Autumn thinks the wall is blue. Her boots are pink, but she thinks they're green.
