First Vacation

Last week, we took Jackson to Hilton Head, South Carolina for his first vacation. It was great to have some time away from the daily grind, but vacationing with a 6-month old was far from a vacation! We spent a lot of time shuffling baby gear back and forth from our condo to my parents' and running up and down from the pool for feedings, naps, etc.

The weary traveller...luckily, Jackson did a lot of napping during the 12-hour car ride to and from Hilton Head.

First dip in the pool...Jackson loves bathtime but wasn't sure what to think of the pool. If only they kept the pool water as warm as his baby bathtub!

Jackson surprised himself - oops, I mean me - with a cool new stroller for Mother's Day. JD has decided that Jackson's official color is orange...hmmm, I wonder why?!?!

A walk by the marsh on a beautiful South Carolina day! There was a lot of rain during our trip but this day turned out wonderful.
