Finally on Vacation

We made it to the ocean but what an eventful day. We had to wake up at 4:30 this morning to make our 6:30 flight, but we made it successfully. The first thing Isabelle said when we pulled up to the airport was, "we're at the Ocean, yeah!" so I had to explain to her that we were not there yet. She threw a fit at the terminal because we had to check her stroller, you all should know by now (through other posts) how emotionally attached she is to that stroller. We get on the airplane, she puts on her seatbelt and says, "ok, ready lets go in the sky". As soon as we finally took of she yelled, "Look at me, I am flyyyiiinnngg. This is cool!". I love having a toddler, she is just a laugh a minute.

On her last trip to Baltimore she slept the entire flight there so I was hoping for a repeat, especially seeing as how she had to get up so early that morning. No such luck, but luckily even thought she was awake and tired she did really well. Until.... She lets out a scream about 2.5 hours into the flight, I tell her not to scream on the plane and she shakes her head and says "I'm going crazy, let me out". At that point I knew I was pushing it and so I took her out for a little break!

After our flight finally landed we had a 2.5 hour wait for Dave's parents to get there, we were sharing a rental car. BWI has the neatest little observatory deck that was perfect for Isabelle. They had a childs play area a plane, luggage carrier and a fuel tanker. You could watch the planes land, and learn about the inner workings of a plane and how the operate. So here they are the first pictures of the vacation.

We are now at the Ocean, Isabelle is in bed and Dave and I are winding down to prepare for our two weeks of NOTHING! Yes, I cannot hardly wait... I will keep you all posted.
