Our trip to
FL went well. The boys did really
well. We did a lot of musical chairs on the way down. The boys took turns being the navigator, in their car seats on the couch with Cecilia, and laying in their bunk watching movies. Cecilia was not happy about
spending so much time in her car seat and she doesn’t like watching movies and
she can only play peek-a-boo or look at books for so long. The boys got more screen time than I care for
but once we got to Disney they didn’t watch hardly any TV so it should all average
out. At least some of the programs,
games and apps were educational. It made
me feel less guilty. Joel even tried
writing the letter “A” several times on my iPhone!

At some point along the way Vincent decided that he wanted to brush my hair, something he has never asked to do before. I worried a little bit about the brush getting stuck in my hair, but he did a great job and thought it was fun. He brushed my hair a lot of different ways and many of them were a little crazy looking. It only lasted about 20 minutes but I enjoyed it. Vincent now wants to be a barber in addition to a scientist.

Per the
usual we spent one night in a Wal-Mart parking lot and another night in a Target
parking lot. The Target was less than 20
minutes from our campground in Disney so Vince was really excited when he woke
up and asked “When are we going to be in Florida?” and I told him we were in
Florida! He was even more excited when I
let him wear shorts. The high the first
day we were in Florida was 85! Vincent
kept saying “it is warm just like when it is my birthday. Is it my birthday?”
The first two days we were in Florida it was in the 80's and I had a lot of fun dressing the kids in shorts and t-shirts, and not having to put coats, hats, gloves, boots, etc on everyone before we could leave to go somewhere! That all changed as the week went on but it was really nice for a couple days.
