Florida Getaway!

March 20 - 23, 2014

Thanks to Phil being invited to speak at a steel convention in Orlando, James and I happily tagged along to enjoy some fun in the much needed sun! As this was also going to be over my birthday weekend, bonus points to Phil that I was able to spend my 30th birthday sunning it up at the pool with the cutest little toddler I know.

Getting ready for his 2nd plane ride! Letting lots of wiggles and running out before we boarded the plane. Those traveling with toddlers: this is key for a successful non-wiggly baby in-flight. As you can see, our airport wasn't too busy at the early hour of 7 am!

 Enjoying his view from our first class seats! 
(Thanks to Phil's flight status, James and I enjoyed our upgrade, both ways, while Phil kicked it back with those in coach. I hope James doesn't expect this kind of treatment every time he flies...)
 Hotel. Shorts & FREEDOM!
Climbed in all by himself (a first!): Take me to the pool!

Early morning stroll 

 Not bad for a baby pool, right?! 
James was eager to take those shoes off and get in!
A perfect way to start your birthday morning!
First time in a pool
James LOVED the water
(as well as his raft & the lazy river!)
Checkin' out the babes 
Like I said, he couldn't get enough of sitting in his raft!
He also couldn't get enough of trying to steal other people's rafts.
Like this Shamu...
...and this Giraffe 
James also made a little buddy, Gabe, who is just one month older than James. 
We couldn't get over how much they looked like they could be brothers! Too cute.
After a fun day at the pool, we came back to the hotel room to find this awesome surprise from my parents!
I definitely felt special on my special day.
Thanks Mom & Dad! 
30 is going to be a great year!
