Florida Day 1: Leaving on a Jet Plane

February 26 -- on our way to Florida! My dad and step mom live in Florida for the winter so we are taking our long-awaited trip to the south to visit them for a week.

First day -- Chloe's first plane ride! She did so well! First of all, she loved the airport. We got to see lots of interesting people. Then on the plane there were more interesting people and noises. She slept during take off but it was short-lived because about 30 minutes later she was awake. We had fun reading books and playing with Zoe (from Sesame Street for those of you not "in the know"). She starred at people standing next to us waiting for a lavatory to open up. She sat on Daddy's lap and looked outside. We landed in Tampa early but Grandpa and Grandma were there waiting for us in the baggage claim. My aunt Robin and uncle Rick are also in Florida on a trip so we'll get to see them a few days!

For lunch we stopped at Sweet Tomatoes. Chloe fell asleep briefly while we ate, but then was ready to go. The two 30 minute naps ended up being all the napping she would do all day. She is so good-natured that she was in pretty good spirits anyway.

We got to our Florida home around 4:30 to unpack and relax a bit. Today was Daddy's birthday so we went to the Ice Cream Doctor for some yummy ice cream. (Chris' family runs the ice cream shop!) Mommy got some Superman ice cream in a sugar cone and Daddy had a birthday sundae.  It was sunny near 80 degrees so it was a great way to end our first day!
