Right after Christmas, we left for a week-long vacation in sunny Costa Rica with Jeff's entire family. Eli and his little baby passport came along too! It was his first time on an airplane, and although he did great and kept the crying to a minimum, the flights were still a little challenging.
Eli was in heaven with so many family members passing him around and spoiling him. He loved meeting his cousin Colt, who is 4 months older than he is. They fought a little over Sophie the Giraffe, but had a lot of fun playing together. We learned that Eli is a big fan of the ocean, and water in general. By the last day of our trip, when Jeff walked him down to the water, he started squealing and kicking his legs with excitement!
We had a wonderful trip, complete with horseback riding, tubing, zip lining, surfing, New Year's Eve fireworks, watching the Frogs win the Rose Bowl (!!!), a sunset sail, and lots of relaxing. Thanks so much Theresa and Bob!
