We went to Destin a few weeks ago. I was a little nervous about it. We took Bella when she was Jude's age and I just remember it being stressful because she cried the whole time at the beach, and we couldn't get her in the sun anyway since you aren't supposed to use sunscreen yet. So we knew we would be taking turns taking her to the beach or pool, with one of us staying home with him, so I just didn't know how stir crazy we might get having to stay home so much.
But it went great! Jude is so easy. He is just happy all the time so he was so easy to have there. My parents (mom) took some turns taking care of him too, and my dad loved to take Bella swimming (that is kind of their thing), so it really worked out great. Jason and I got one day to ourselves to go to the beach and then got a couple date nights, so it was really fun.
We flew Southwest to Panama City, meaning we laid over in Houston. I was a little nervous about the flight since I had never flown with such a small child, but they both slept a lot. Bella, on both flights, just curled up and went to sleep. I wish she would do that at home!
Trying to take enough stuff for all of us, we looked like the Clampett's going through the airport. This is just SOME of the stuff...
The kids sleeping happily on the flight. Jason made a fancy Instagram picture out of them...
Bella ready to go to the beach!
Ok, if this picture doesn't capture her personality entirely I don't know what does...
I LOOOOOVE this picture of Jude. I love him in hats first off, and he just looks so sweet and his little eyes are so blue. Ugh, melt my heart!
Bella is obsessed with Peter Pan and has taken to posing like a pirate in every picture. This is her hook pose. She is also wearing my mom's glasses.
Bella loves riding in the golf cart around everywhere. You can see Jason in the reflection ha.
So it was a great trip! Bella swam so much and is really swimming a lot now. She just loves being in the water. Good thing cause it is HOT out there. Happy Summer!
