We are home!!! I have been trying to gather myself after what was a stressful "vacation" to put it nicely. Jake and I have learned our lesson about trying to take such a grand family trip with such small children. We were the ONLY parents I saw that had two SMALL children and NO grandparents. Other families were prepared. We were just exhausted. All of us. It was wonderful family time...it was just 24-7 of us all on top of each other which meant the kids had no space just for them which meant they were pretty cranky. I sorted through the pics to find smiley ones.
I just have to say it was a vacation Jake and I will never forget and hopefully Luke and Reagan will never remember! LOL!
Here we are unedited :) At least the images aren't! I'll post the rest later in an album...
Getting ready for the safety drill. Isn't he TOO CUTE?
Luke was down for the count early. This got lots of awwwws.
Like it says above...crap shots :) Reagan was not into smiling here.
Golly Gee mom, when will all of this nonsense end?
Oh, and Luke thought he could walk at the beginning of the week, so that is carpet burn on his nose. I got to explain this to complete strangers all week.
He is also literally sick (hence the reflection in the snot - yuck) and tired (purple eyes) in this photo.
Reagan's new way to smile...which worked on Pirate night so I joined her!
Luke LOVED the kiddie fountains. We were always so busy playing with him that we didn't have much time to take photos.
Reagan was a little hesitant with the Characters. This is as close to a smile as we got.
On the other hand, Luke LOVED them!
SMOOCH!
A moment of alone time for me and Jake. The kids spent the hot part of the day in the nursery onboard.
My two handsome men. Gush...
And finally, a where's waldo of me and the kids.
On the way home our windshield cracked from the bottom clear to the top right between the driver's eyes and once we returned home, our refrigerator had broken. A fitting end to the stressful week.
The silver lining is my lovely in laws kept the kids Saturday night for Jake and I to recover and then clean out the fridge. All is well now. The kids are each in their rooms and can make as much noise as they want and not wake each other up at all hours. And I am still trying to get everything in order. Wait. I do that every day!!!
Have a WONDERFUL WEEK!
delightfully,
Monica
