Love the beach!
I've got my toes in the water....
Day 2: After getting up, we went to the store and got some groceries since we had a one bedroom suite, we had a fridge, stove, and microwave to use. We went to the pool in the morning and Addy loved the water and got used to her floatie, we then went back to our room for lunch and in the afternoon headed out to the beach where we walked almost 2 miles to the public beach and then back before enjoying the water. Addy enjoyed napping during our walk and we got our workout taking turns pushing the stroller (which we love by the way- it is a Jeep brand with big tires for off-roading, however the tires were a tad deflated so this made pushing it more difficult during our daily trips up and down the beach). Addy liked it when we held her in the ocean, but I think it was too wavy for her floatie. She loved to taste the salt water, licking our shoulders after coming out of the water. She enjoyed playing at the water's edge and would try to eat the sand at times. She definitely had the splashing down from bath time at home. That night I cooked spaghetti and made a salad and we ate dinner in then went on a walk and got some ice cream while we missed the sunset on the beach by about 10 minutes.
Good morning!
Love my daddy

Day 3: We went to the pool in the morning again, lunch in the room, and beach in the afternoon and then had leftovers for dinner. We made it to the beach again in time for the sunset and it was gorgeous! We went out for yogurt and then to bed.
Day 4: was a lot like days 2 and 3. We wanted to take full advantage of our pool and beach time. We were worn out and all took naps and then got dressed up for dinner and went out the a place called The Hub. They had a band playing and Addy enjoyed "dancing" in her highchair, and flirting with a couple of guys at the bar. We went and watched the sunset and got some more good pics before getting ice cream and heading in to pack stuff up.

Day 5: Headed out after breakfast to drive back to Tampa, return the rental car, and fly home. We had a layover in Houston (which of course the next flight was at a different terminal and quite a walk) and then were on a small plane. Addy did great again, thankfully and we received more compliments. We were sad to leave the beach behind, but glad to have our own beds again. Traveling with a little one is definitely different, but I wouldn't change it for the world! Overall the trip was great, the downfall was Addy did not sleep well at all but she hadn't been doing so at home either. She is teething and we think that is a big reason. Hope you enjoy the pictures! I'll post more to facebook.
Addy doesn't look too happy to leave
