Vacation!!

We just got back from a Hyde family vacation yesterday. We had a great time! It was a little challenging traveling with a 2 1/2 month old but he did really well on the plane. He only cried a couple of times during the four flights each four hours long. The last flight when I sat down the lady next to me rolled her eyes and sighed...I guess she wasn't so excited to sit next to a baby. He didn't make a peep though and I really wanted to make a smart comment to her when we landed but I refrained.

Traveling was a huge adventure! We had delays on all of our flights...thanks Delta! We were really fortunate when they actually held the plane 30 minutes so my family and 10 others could make the flight to St Thomas. Between running to our next plane we had to pick up our stroller at the gate which was broken by the bag handlers. So - we had to lug around our broken stroller. Alex tried to convince me before we left that it would be a pain to have the stroller so it was a little comical when we had to carry the stroller because it was missing a wheel. Alex was able to tape the wheel on so we could use the stroller for our trip and Delta said they will pay for a new stroller. Woo hoo! When we got to the Virgin Islands my suit case was still in New York. We left Friday night and I didn't get my suit case until Monday evening. such a bummer. Then on the way home we missed our connecting flight and had to spend the night in Atlanta and make it back to the airport at 6am.

Besides the traveling, it was a blast spending time at the pool, snorkeling, and playing games with the family. Like most vacations it was over way too soon. I want to go back already.

We had an amazing view from the house we stayed in. The weather was so nice.


Happy guy!

    Dexter is such a trooper. I would have cried way more than that if my flights had been haywire. He is so cute!! I like his hair spike...did you style it that way on purpose?

    he is so cute, and I am glad you guys had fun. We had our kids traveling from the time they were 6 weeks by the time he is 2 or 3 when most kids go crazy on planes our just sit nicely. That place you stayed looks gorgeous. Thanks for posting again so we can get our Dexter fix.
