Matt and I took the girls to Florida over spring break to get a little rest from the cold. It was AMAZING. I love love love the warm weather. It was perfect, not too hot to be outside enjoying the beach and not too cold to not be able to wear summer clothes. My parents are renting a place for the month in Naples so we went to stay at their house for 5 days. I was so sad to leave, probably a little too sad!
The day we left it was Lucy’s 6 month birthday so we took some pictures while we were there. Here are a few pics…enjoy!
This was Annie as we were leaving for the airport. She got this back pack for Christmas and loves to carry it around pretending that she is going to school. She was thrilled to get to fill it and bring it on the plane.
This was the scene at the airport. With two small children we do not exactly travel light anymore. Both the girls did really well on the flights but neither of them slept at all on the way there. This was more of a problem for the 6 month old.
The view from our back porch. We were right on a canal so Matt got to go fishing every second that he was at the house!
Annie LOVED the water once again. She spend the whole time swimming with her inner tube then jumping off the ledge into the water to go under. She kept doing it over and over again. Then she practiced swimming without the floaty. The doesn’t mind going under water but I think she started to take in a little too much water so we had to eventually take a little break. She was loving it though.

Fishing with Dad. She was very interested in all the fish that daddy was catching.
Lucy’s personality has started to come out a lot even in the last week. She is such a happy little baby. She doesn’t sleep as much as her sister did. She sleeps great at night but doesn’t love her naps like Annie did. Today it seemed like she blew raspberries for 3/4 of the day. It is hilarious, it is like she is trying to communicate something through making little raspberry noises. She just continues to do it over and over again. She just smiles and starts again. She is hilarious. She is also starting to really be able to move. Not crawling quite yet, but she can kind of army crawl to get to things that are close that she wants. She can swivel 360 degrees and is close to a full our crawl. We are thinking that we are going to have another outgoing, extraverted, hyperactive little girl on our hands in a matter of months.

I thought this picture was hilarious because it shows our 2 1/2 year old sleeping away for over an hour on the plane ride home while our 6 month old would not sleep a wink. Lucy stayed up the entire time and was extremely tired but apparently if she is not in her bed she decides she doesn’t need to nap. Annie however, knowing that it is nap time and being exhausted from our trip decided to take a good hour nap in my arms. Hilarious.
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa, we loved our trip!
