A Wonderful Vacation

While on vacation in Hilton Head Island, SC, Jon and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary. Jon's parents watched the boys while we went out to eat at Oceanfront Cafe in Harbor Town. We sat by a window overlooking the harbor and watched dolphins entertain us almost the whole dinner. Most people feel as if they can't believe it's been a certain amount of years that they've been married. I always say that I can't believe it's only been 4 years because so much has happened in that time. By our first anniversary we already had 8 week old Michael, by our 2nd we were pregnant with Jonathan and by our 3rd we had two boys. I wouldn't trade what God has chosen for our family and definitely feel so blessed to have all my boys, especially Jon. He is my calm and reason.

This is what Jonathan looked like most of our trip to the beach...a beach bum. He really liked sitting and watching Michael and other children. He did NOT take to the water as I had hoped but he did enjoy the wading pools at the beach once they warmed up a bit.

This was the first year that Michael loved playing in the pool and ocean. He really liked it when Daddy would throw him up in the air and catch him in the water. The only downside to all this water fun is that he got a bad ear infection and severe eczema flair-up by the end of the trip.

Jonathan was so funny around Yei Yei, Jon's dad. He wouldn't give him the time of day. Yei Yei would pull on his shirt and try to get his attention, but Jonathan would only give a coy look and look straight ahead. When Yei Yei was out of the room Jonathan would say his name repeatedly, but he wouldn't say anything when he came back in the room.
