My Angels are perfect Flyers

We flew to Florida today to visit Ryan's grandmother and the flight down was amazingly perfect! You would have thought the girls fly every week! I was so nervous about the flight since we were flying with both girls on out laps!

We landed and the Orlando airport was a madhouse! There were so many inconsiderate people there! For example we were trying to get off an elevator to get our baggage and people would not let us off the elevator, they just walked on and pushed us... And I was holding Keegan and pushing Fiona in a stroller. I seriously almost freaked out!

After the fiasco at the Orlando airport we packed ourselves in Laura's car and headed to Sebastian!

We have already had an amazing time and we have been here for less than 24 hours!

Tomorrow's agenda include the beach, pool and more! Yay!

Dora, Elmo and Fraggles oh my!

Keegan is starting to get used to the headphones and the portable DVD player. We have been gearing her up for the plane ride to Florida. We have Elmo, Dora and Fraggle Rock DVD's to hopefully entertain her. Tonight she actually watched the DVD player for over an hour with out taking off the headphones and as she was watching Dora tonight I could not help but be amazed at how much she was actually learning from the DVD. She began to count and then I noticed her answering basic questions that Dora was asking like yes or no and pointing out items on the screen! She also said a couple new words: backpack, Dora and map! She laughed, clapped and let out screams of delight! It's amazing how much a DVD that drives adults nuts can be so entertaining to a toddler! She is 20 months now and she still amazes me everyday! I love it, I love her and I love being a MOM! It's the best job I have ever had!

Fiona's 6 month check-up

Fiona is as healthy as can be besides a little allergies (like her mommy). She is now 17lbs, 10oz and 26-3/4" long! That is the 75-90th percentile. The doc said she is right on track for development and was impressed with how happy she was! Well... The happiness didn't last long when she got her 3 shots! Poor baby!!!!!! But she only cried for a second and she was mommys little angel again.

We took advantage of having the doctor's attention to ask him about tips for flying with both girls since we are going to Florida by airplane soon. His only advice was distraction! We hopefully will have that covered- We bought a Portable DVD player for Keegan to watch Elmo and Dora. We also got her a new book and some new crayons to color in her coloring books. I read that wrapping the new toys will help in the excitment and help keep her attention longer. Since we decided to fly with both girls in lap since they are both under two we really hope they work! WISH US LUCK!

We have a talker on our hands

Keegan has been talking for a while, but she is really become a little chatter box in the last couple of weeks. Her new words consist of: Sissy, Good Morning, pull, home, Keegan, Fiona, pants, shirt, bath and a lot more! We love hearing new words she can say. It is daily now that she says something new and is also putting words together to form more and more sentences.

Fiona on the other hand did say Mama a couple times, but hasn't said much lately. She is talking a lot of baby talk recently so we don't think it long before she starts saying a few more words!

We are going to Florida at the end of March to visit Ryan's grandmother, Laura. We are so ready for a vacation and can't wait to spend a whole week with the girls. I have been doing a lot of research to find fun kid oriented things to do.

If you are familiar with Sebastian, Vero Beach or Melbourne Fl and have any suggestions, let us know!
