We got back from Texas on Friday, and to be honest, the last few days kind of feel like a blur. And while we had an awesome time with family and being off of "work" for 2 weeks, it feels really good to be back at our normal lives. Adalyn did well on the flights, but entertaining her was nothing short of exhausting for Andrew and I. Even though they can fly for free until 2, I'd highly recommend getting your toddler a seat if you can afford it. We used airline miles, so that wasn't really an option for us, but it surely would have made things A LOT easier. We were hoping for some warm air and sunshine down south, but that wasn't in the cards for us. It was 50's and some 40's and mostly cloudy pretty much the whole time. Every other time I've visited it's been absolutely gorgeous, so I suppose we were due for some poor weather. It certainly didn't stop us from having fun though.
At LGA waiting for our flight, and she was not a happy camper when we told her she couldn't jump on the seats.
The paci works wonders for takeoff.
We arrived safely and Adalyn was ecstatic to find a "woof woof" to play with.
She had her 3rd Christmas...
And perhaps was a bit overwhelmed.
The rest of Andrew's grades came in. I have a smart hubby.
She played with her Uncle Eric
Add "rake" to list of 100+ words. I can't say that she likes them though.
Daddy makes it all better.
Off to Landa Park to ride the Choo Choo...with Melvin and Lilly in tow.
The swing has always been hit or miss with her.
Auntie Kati was cold.
Melvin liked the swing though.
She danced at Grandpa KP or "pee pee"'s church service.
And did a little photoshoot on her 17 month birthday!
And dined on homemade enchiladas later that evening.
Cheers!
It was too cold to play outside, so we went to play in the church.
Andrew and I played basketball and volleyball and it made me wish we had a giant gym like this to play in back home. 25 weeks belly.
Andrew and I went off to a friend's house for New Year's Eve. We had a great time. I made it to midnight NYC time.
I started my 365 project the next morning. 1st image with my lensbaby. I'm loving it so far, but it takes some practice, especially on moving subjects!!
Andrew did a little workout with Adalyn.
The next day, she had her first chocolate chip cookie. Those squats will come in handy.
And then it was off to the most awesome children's museum ever. I thought ours was pretty cool, but no, this one is awesome!!
And then she had her fist taste of sushi. Clearly, she didn't know what to make of it. She only ate the rice.
Then Papa and Gigi returned from Lake Tahoe and Adalyn had her 4th Christmas!
We finished the trip off right with Mexican food.
The flights home....the flights home....this basically sums it up:
