You have now officially earned your first set of wings. For February vacation, you and I took a trip to Fort Myers Beach to visit Nana and Granky. Unfortunately, Daddy had to stay behind to work, so you and I had this adventure to ourselves. Daddy took us to the airport bright and early and off we went.
Mommy REALLY doesn't like to fly, but having you to focus on made it not so bad at all. The way down was a pretty long trip since we had two stop overs, but you were a great traveling companion. On each flight, you fell asleep before take off and slept almost until landing. You did wake up a little bit on one flight, just long enough to dump Mommy's ginger ale on the lady next to us, but she didn't mind! Other than that, it was smooth sailing. I mean flying.
Once we landed, Nana, Granky and Auntie Jeane were at the gate to meet us. They couldn't believe how big you had gotten in a short time and were so surprised at what a great walker you had become. It was a long ride to the Red Coconut from the airport because of traffic, and you were starting to get a little unhappy, so we stopped and got you your first ice cream. It was actually frozen yogurt, it was strawberry and you loved it!
Once we got to Coconut, you had a blast exploring the house and the park, visiting the beach and making friends with all the neighbors. You ate tons of fresh fish and were pretty much an angel the whole trip! We took lots of long walks with Auntie Jeanie and overall just had a great time.
It was pretty sad when it came time to get back on the plane and head home. We only had one stop this time, and once again, you were a champ! Daddy met us at the airport and you were so happy to see him! We are looking forward to many, many more trips to FMB. Maybe next time we can bring Daddy with us.
Love you, my little beach bum!
