We made it back from our trip. I've learned to call it "our trip" vs. "our vacation", because by no means was it a vacation, at least not for me. The week we left, Emerson had pink eye and a double middle ear infection. That was on Monday. On Wednesday, I went to the urgent care center and was diagnosed with a sinus infection. I felt horrible with a temperature over 103 degrees. Nothing like packing when you feel horrible. We ended up leaving a day later than planned. We had a good time...the weather was great. They were hitting record highs (mid-80's.) in Florida. Thank you global warming...but then that came to bite us in the rear when our second to last day there is was in the 40's!! Camryn ended up getting sick from Christmas Eve until the 27th or so. The poor girl couldn't keep her bottle down. Now she just has that nasty cough that Emerson and I had.
I was finally able to get a decent picture of the girls in their outfits they got for Christmas out on the lanai. Camryn is such a happy girl!
After we left Florida, we went to visit with our friends in Alabama. They got married on the same day we did and we met each other on our honeymoon's in Aruba. Whenever we make the trip to Florida, we always make sure to stop and see them. They have 3 boys....4 (Braley), 3 (Charlie) and 18 months (AJ). The Dad's took the kids to the park to play and the Mom's & Camryn went shopping at the mall. Talk about a great day!!
Grampa & Gramma got gift certificates for us to go bowling while we were visiting. We took Emerson for the first time. She enjoyed it the first few frames, but after that she wasn't interested anymore. So Mommy finished up her game using the bumpers. From being on bed rest, my muscles are still getting used to things if I haven't done them in a while. After bowling, I had muscles hurting that I didn't know existed!
Sorry for the scary red eyes! I forgot to fix them before I loaded all the pictures. This is a shot of Camryn's teeth. We left for Florida with only 3 teeth and came home with 6! And there are more in the works!
I gave Camryn a bath the other day and while I was getting her dressed, I told Emerson to get her clothes off and get ready to get into the tub. After I got Camryn dressed, I couldn't find Emerson. This is where she was hiding. Must be nice to be small....and a contortionist.
This is another picture for the "No Nap" series. Emerson kept going and going all day while in Florida. Once she sat down, which wasn't often, she would just CRASH! Needless to say, once she went down at night, she slept like a rock.
In The Villages, they have two different Town Squares, where they have music and dancing every night. This is Daddy & Emerson breaking it down to some music.
