We just got back from a week long vacation at Isle of Palms Beach. Once again, Pearce did great on the plane. I had tons of snacks, games, toys, and books to keep him occupied, but I found out I really didn't need all of that. I think it really helped to have him in is own car seat. Although he really doesn't like riding in it in the car, it was familiar to him on the plane and I was just happy he did so well! So, back to the beach...I LOVED this beach! It was such a cute little beach town with plantation style houses. Chris's friend, Sully invited us to stay with their family...actually several families. We were with Sully, his wife Jill and their 3 year old, Ava; Jill's sister Dina and her two boys, Gavin (7) and Colton (2); Jill and Dina's parents and Sully's mom...a full house! The weather was great and Pearce had so much fun playing with Colton and Gavin! Unfortunately, several people got a stomach bug while we were there. Pearce was the first to throw up. He threw up several times, but never acted like he felt bad. Then Chris and Ava and Gavin got it. Chris was only sick for about 12 hours, but Gavin and Ava were really bad off. I felt terrible for them. Surprisingly, I never got it! Despite all of that, we still had a great time! Tons of pics ahead...
We had to borrow a pack 'n play from Dina, but they were late getting to the house and Pearce was desperately in need of a nap, so we just put Pearce to bed in one of the twin beds with pillows all around. I wasn't sure if he would actually stay on the bed or actually go to sleep, but he did!
One of Pearce's favorite things to do after going to the beach...hosing off :)
Pearce did great on the plane rides home. On the first one he was out before we even took off!
We had a 3 hour layover in Houston and Daddy surprised Pearce with this Southwest Airlines plane....man, did he LOVE it!!! He had so much fun playing with it and flying it in the air. This boy loves "a-panes!"
I thought this was so funny....during dinner he kept putting his fingers in his ears....I guess he discovered that when you do that you can't hear anything. So cute!! We got back late Saturday night and Pearce slept in until 10:00 this morning!
