Family Cruise 2008

We finally went on the long awaited cruise. It was wonderful. The ship sailed to Cozumel and the Grand Cayman Islands. It was just long enough being 5 days. I definitely recommend this as a family vacation. I didn't get annoyed with any of my beloved family members :-)

We had a perfect room with a balcony. It was great for the long naps that Evelyn took. She was really great on the trip. Exceeded our expectations. Dan and I felt she grew up so much in that week. She started reaching for people. Flirting. And eating real food. Her favorite was pasta. Yum.

Happy Halloween

Evelyn had her first Halloween. She dressed up as a dragonfly. She was very interested when Daddy was cleaning out the pumpkin and getting ready to carve it. When he started to cut, she got VERY upset. I guess she didn't like to see her new orange friend get cut. It was cute. She had fun handing out candy to the neighborhood kids.

She is 6 months old now. I cannot believe how fast time flies. She is eating solid foods twice a day and is even starting to feed herself. We don't have any teeth yet, but we are sure she is moments away. She even has quite an independant attitude. I didn't know a 6mo old could through a tantrum, but they can! If she decides she wants something, she better get it or she gets mad. I wonder who she got that from???

We are getting ready to go on our big vacations next week (a cruise) so look forward to another update in a couple of weeks.

Love
