Florida Fun

We took Abby for her first Florida Vacation in early March. We stayed with Michael's Uncle Chris and Aunt Ann (and Izzy too) in Clearwater. MJ and I went to see "Wicked" thanks to Abby (she got me tickets for Christmas and Uncle Chris and Aunt Ann baby sat, THANKS!!). We also got to spend some time with MJ's Grandma and her friend Violet. All in all it was a great trip and we hope to go back soon.

Bigger and Better

Big changes have come to the Johnson household since getting back from a little vaca. in Florida:

Abby is now eating cereal (the video is a little long, sorry)...

Abby is sleeping unburritoed...

Abby is using the next size binky... which is the last size they make. This makes me a bit sad for some reason. I guess I better stock up on then when I find them on sale!

Fun in Philly

This past weekend we took our first vacation as a family. We headed over to Philly for a family wedding and decided to spend an extra day there in order to see some sights. I must admit that I was a little nervous about this trip since it was the first time we would be traveling with Abby in tow. I must say that she did a fabulous job all weekend long! She was a trooper :) She slept the entire flight down and 80% of the flight home, saw all the sights with us from the comfort of her stroller and slept like a champ in the travel bed that Kristi let us borrow (thanks Kristi, you were a life saver this weekend!!) My mom came up from Virginia Beach to meet and watch Abby while we were at the wedding--I think my mom had the most fun out of all of us getting to know her grandchild. It was cool to watch them bond. Here are a few photos from our trip:

Packing

We are headed to Philly this weekend for Jason Tiefenback's wedding. We are excited about taking our first family vacation and about attending the wedding. So, today is a busy day around here as we pack for the big trip. It is amazing just how much stuff a baby requires for just 4 days! Hope we don't forget anything...

I think Daddy is going to have to give up some room in his suitcase in order to fit all of Abby's stuff :) Sorry Daddy, Mommy needs to take 3 pair of shoes, hair and make-up tools, clothing options, etc. Daddies are less maintenance and therefore require less luggage space. Get used to it, you are living with 2 girls now!!

I will be sure to post lots of pics on Tuesday! Have a great weekend everyone :)
