Fun in the sun

We are back from sunny Florida. We had an incredible vacation. We went to the same exact place Marc and I went last year on spring break. But last year, we had just received Poppy's referral and all we talked about was her. It was so amazing to be together on vacation this year. Poppy was a trooper on the flights, just sat on our laps and entertained us with her antics, which was such a relief. And she had a blast going to the beach and playing in the sand. Although I'm pretty sure the highlight of the week for her was getting to go out for ice-cream every night.

We took a million pictures, here are a few of the highlights...

First time at the beach. She was nervous of the water at first, she kept pointing and saying "Wawa!" Eventually she warmed up to it...

We had one rainy day, so we found a children's museum in the area. Poppy loved this table - the balls were being propelled by blasts of air.

On Monday we went to the Tampa Zoo. It was incredible! And Poppy loved cooling off in the sprinklers...

We were able to catch the Yankees - Rays game the night before we headed home. Poppy absolutely loved it! She sat on Marc's lap the entire time and if she wasn't scarfing down a hot-dog or ice-cream, she was shouting over and over "Where ball?! Where ball?!" It was too cute!
