Here we are heading South. For a special treat, Dan had us fly first class on Spirit. We were in the very first seat. It was one bumpy flight. Pilot said it didn't even help to change altitude since it was bumpy everywhere. We made it safe and sound, but even in first class had to pay for our drink and chips. We came a little earlier than Gram and the kids. They had a lay over in Orlando, a bumpy flight, and delays making their trip about 12 hours long with a baby. She was great and endured the travel just fine. David said she quite enjoyed it.
It is so nice to have good friends, and Dan has one of the best in his buddy Gabby. While we were arriving, Gabby was dropping off other friends from the condo and then swung by us to pick us up. Sure beats the taxi ride.
We had already set up the Christmas tree when we were in town several weeks ago. You can see there is only one present way over in the corner. It is of course for Leah, her rubber pants, swim top, and hat for the pool. We already had Christmas in Michigan, but when Christmas Eve came around somehow more packages miraculously appeared. Sarah and I exchanged Sephora gifts, Dan gave me a new clock radio that plays and charges our IPods, nice blouse for Grandma Lois, and of course many surprises from Aunt Stella and Uncle Joe. It was great to receive their package down here and actually have some mail. Several folks from Dan's work were very thoughtful and sent a Christmas arrangement and cards. It was a fun but quick week with the kids, but we sure missed Adam, Natalie, and our other relatives. Not the same without us being together. They were spread from Michigan to Mexico to Alaska.
Our condo is getting new balcony glass railings so this is what we see every morning. Most of the time there are 2 or 3 men sitting on it. They should be done installing glass on our stack within the next 2 weeks. Then we can finally open our doors and window again. It has been about 9 months since we could open them. You can see Miami in the distance if you look close.
Dan and Leah bonding as we make up a place for her to sleep. We kept her with us for all but one night so the kids could catch up on some sleep. She did pretty good waking up at about 5:30 for a feeding and always going right back to sleep for a couple more hours.
Night night!
We couldn't resist trying on the hat as soon as she got into town. Looks a little bit large but should do the job. Doesn't exactly match the Santa suit.
In this picture, if you look close you can see a little curly-q on the top of her head.
I am not so sure she is into this swim thing like we are....
