Vacation 2012 part 3

On this trip, we didn’t go to Disney, but we did go to SeaWorld!  It was so much fun!
Petting and feeding the sting rays.

Our last day of vacation we spent at Cocoa Beach.  I am always so sad to leave the beach.  I am absolutely amazed by the ocean.  It’s just so hard to grasp it’s size and how small we really are.  I am intrigued. 
All my faves, at the same time, same place, together, on a beach.  Does it get any better than that?

I had to have a (virgin) Pina Colada, to get the real vacation mode feeling!!  HA!

Although I wouldn’t trade being pregnant, next vacation I go on, I will NOT be pregnant!  I couldn't have ANY of the fish sandwiches I wanted and definitely couldn’t have all of the fresh, raw tuna that I wanted, that everyone else was having!  And I had to stick with cooked oysters!  Who likes cooked food anymore?  Not me!  HA!

Oh vacation, why must you have to end??

Vacation 2012 part 2

One day we just stayed at the condo by the pool.  It was such a great set up because, number one, we had the pool ALL TO OURSELVES, and second, there was tables and a grill around the pool.  So we stayed out there for hours, swimming, grilling and eating.  It was such a great day and the weather was perfect!  And girlfriend took some awesome naps!!
Mia grew so SO much in the swimming department on this trip. Before the vacation, she LOVED the water, but did NOT want me to let her go, even with floaties on.  This trip?  She didn’t want anyone to touch her, and she was jumping in the deep end and going completely under (with floaties, of course!)!!  She would just pop out from the water and crack up laughing!!  This whole vacation, I don’t think she EVER quit smiling.  And that?  Makes a momma so so happy!

The next day we decided to head to the Atlantic side to Cocoa Beach, and it was SO much better!  Less crowded, bigger waves, free public parking!

Just a girl and her daddy, walking the beach!  ::Insert heart melt::

Y’all?  I’m sorry, but I just think I have a stinking HOT husband!!

Oh yeah, me and this guy?  Celebrated 5 years of marriage this week!  I’m such a lucky girl!!  I couldn’t imagine doing life with anyone else!

Vacation 2012 part 1

This past week we took our last beach vacation as a family of 3!  If we go anywhere next year, we will be toting around a 6 month old.  Cuh-ray-zee!!

Last Saturday we flew into Orlando and stayed at my Grandpa’s condo.  It was so nice and the pool was so clean, and there was NO ONE else at the pool when we were.  And the best part?  It was free!!  Thanks so so much Grand Poppy!!
On the airplane!  She did so good and loved it!!

Our first night was just relaxing, getting groceries for the week and eating dinner out at a local seafood restaurant.
Raw oysters anyone??  Everyone except me, because obvs.  However, I really wanted some!!

The next day we headed to Clearwater beach for the day and bought Mia some sand toys and this cute little hat!  Clearwater was not our favorite because it was crazy packed.  Mia had a great time though!
