Anniversary trip

We had an awesome time in Orlando and came back feeling very relaxed. We were both able to catch up on some much needed sleep! We had a Jacuzzi suite which was wonderful! We checked in on Thursday and then went into Downtown Disney to pick up our tickets for the show that night. After eating dinner we headed back to Disney and wondered around until the show started. It was great as usual! There were four little Chinese girls who were absolutely adorable! They were only five or six and wow, were they ever good. They had what looked like some kind yo yo on a string and they would throw them in the air, do back flips and all kinds of other gymnastics then catch them on the string again. Friday we slept in, wondered around Orlando, ate, watched a movie and generally just took it easy. We were both ready to come home on Saturday, but it was a great trip!
Evan did great staying with Grandma and Grandpa White. He slept all night for them and was his usual charming self. He officially has four teeth now. The top left front tooth came through while we were gone. He loves chewing on Nilla wafers and the little Gerber puffs. Being gone from him for two days brought into perspective how big he is getting! Sometimes when we are here with him all day every day we don't notice how much he has grown until someone mentions it. The picture with his shoes may need some explaining. Evan hates shoes! Normally, when we stand him like that he wants to walk everywhere! Not so when he has shoes on! We could not get him to take one step. He just stood there. I bought them because they are so cute and he needed a pair of dressy shoes. It was like he had two blocks on his feet. I'll try and get a video of him "crawling" (it's actually half crawl/half drag) on here later. He is quite speedy and gets where he wants to go!

Say "Cheese"!
The dreaded shoes!
The Jacuzzi in our room. So relaxing!

Hey! Looks like you had a fabulous time on your little get-away. :o) I can't believe how fast your little guy is growing!! I hope we can see you guys again sometime in the near future. I think we're about due for another FL run!! BTW, Amber will be heading to Hobe Sound with Joseph this coming weekend and I think she's going to be there for a couple weeks. Maybe you'll get a chance to introduce your boys.

Jennifer,

I heard you had a baby, and it's nice to see pictures of him! What a cutie pie.

Do you remember babysitting for us in Florida? On second thought, how could you ever forget Zack? :-)

Thank you for the comment on my blog :) You're right, Alex is indeed growing way too fast... I have a feeling he's going to crawl soon and watch me run after him all over the house. How are you surviving your sweet baby being mobile?
