Hilton Head...the end (finally!)

Ten posts later, I'm finally at the end of our vacation. :)

What a great week we had, and I have to say that traveling with 2 kids under the age of 2 1/2 could have been a recipe for disaster.  Our last flight with Micah was last December, which ended in us coming home early, and I really didn't want a repeat this time around.  Thankfully that didn't happen, and aside from Reid's night time sleep (or lack there of at times - the last night there he was up for 3 hours straight :( ) and Micah's periodic melt downs - par for the course, and we are figuring how to handle them a little better, it went as best as could be expected. 

This is random in this post, yet such a fun picture, as Micah just went and hugged Reid while Reid was crawling around.  Micah tends to overwhelm Reid with his love ;)

Capping off our vacation was S'More night at the resort.  It just happened to be the last night we were there, and Micah was SO excited to go camping, like "Ew Ah" (curious george, for those of you that don't speak Micahease).  There's a story with CG camping, and Micah constantly talks about wanting to camp with Ew Ah, Daddy and the man with the yellow hat.  Next year Christian has promised to take Micah camping...I think that will be a fantastic father/son memory!  

S'Mores were the perfect way to end a pretty great vacation...




 

Back to the airport, praying for another positive traveling experience.  Believe it or not, it was better than the flight out!  Partially due to Reid's being up the night before, I think he was just so exhausted, that he literally slept the entire flight.  So much easier to keep the peace with sleeping kids:)  Prior to the flight, however, I snapped these pictures of the boys looking out the window at the planes taking off.  Reid, with his new mobility, opens him up to a whole new world of exploring.


 

And there you go - first vacation as a family of 4 - SUCCESS!
