Leaving on a Jet Plane

Oh you seasoned traveler you!! We just got back (well it's been almost two weeks but Mommy is sleepy in the evenings when I'm supposed to be blogging!)from The Trip as we like to call it! You were supposed to go the beach with Mommy, Mimi and Poppy but Mother Nature had other plans and sent a tropical storm that way, the nearest beach that had good weather was five hours away by plane and Mommy did not think that was a good idea with an almost 15 month old! Sooooo we headed to Texas Hill Country! San Antonio to be exact! Mommy was so excited and a bit nervous about your first plane ride but good thing I had Mimi and Poppy with me!! You even had your very own boarding pass! We decided to take your car seat on the plane with us because it would be familiar and would keep you from wanting to a walk around , because you are walking machine my friend! So we boarded and got you all secure in your seat and then you were ready to go. You did so good with the take off!! And in about five minutes into the flight you fell asleep and slept almost the whole flight!







And let me tell you my friend you LOVE an airport! You were very a big helper and liked to push the baggage cart all around! You also attracted quite the crowd of admirers! One lady even asked to take your picture! So here we were in the Lone Star state, and Poppy out did himself on the hotel! Soooo nice love!! We had a great big suite that you could roam all around in and a kitchen! But the best part of all was the pool!! Oh my goodness love it was a water park and you L-O-V-E-D it!!! The best part of the day was playing in the water with your Mimi and Poppy (which by the way you seem to only have eyes for! No Mommy time for you, all Mimi and Poppy!!)Here you are in all your aquatic cuteness!








Note that you and Poppy have matching outfits on! You are a carbon copy of your Poppy!


Not only did we play play play in the water, we also explored the Riverwalk and the Alamo!! Mommy was very excited about this because Daddy is always watching some sort of Western show on the History Channel and of course your relation as a Tennessean to the one and only Davy Crockett! You were also a very big hit at the Alamo! People loved watching you walk all around! I'm pretty sure a group of Japanese tourists took your picture also!







You also discovered your love for picking flowers! Every evening before dinner we would walk around outside and you just loved picking the flowers! I'm sure the hotel gardeners were not thrilled with this development but you had soooo much fun!!









We had so much fun on our trip!! Mommy can't wait to see where Mimi and Poppy will take us next!!
