Florida for Daddy's Birthday

For Jarod's Birthday this year we decided to take a trip to Florida. Uncle Connor is living in Tampa coaching the number 3 high school team in the country and we thought it would be a great get away for our little family.

We got there and went to the game on Friday night. Ok, it really wasn't a game. Yes, that is 80-0. It was a huge blow out.

But that was ok, we had the best time playing on the field after the game.

Jacoby is really into playing football right now and every night we have to clear the field (clean up the toy room) so him and his Daddy can play football.

He had so much fun playing with Daddy and Uncle Connor. He even puts his hand up and whistles before he runs 20 yards to the football for kick off.

He has quite an arm but he still throws left handed and bats left handed. He does everything else right handed so we are still not sure if he will be a leftie or not.

After the game in Tampa, we headed south to Long Boat Key. Jacoby was so excited to be at the beach! We put our stuff in our room and headed out to see the beach. Within two minutes he was in the ocean clothes and all. He just couldn't wait any longer. Then we got to the hotel room and he jumped on the bed naked, singing about how excited he was to be at the beach. Life is good I tell you for this little guy. And we could not stop laughing.

He could not wait to get back to the beach.

I can barely still see my toes

The water is so clear and beautiful

We had the best time playing in the water, building sand castles and I even got to read about child birth.

Connor came and saw us on Sunday and we headed to Siesta Key for the drum circle that they do every Sunday night at sunset. Lets just say it was really interesting people watching.

But the beach was incredible! It is known as the prettiest beach in America and I have to tell you I agree. The sand is white like powder and the sunset was beautiful.

I tried to get as many pictures as possible before the sunset. Here I am 26 weeks pregnant.

Jacoby showing his gymnastics moves. He was rolling and jumping all over. The sand was so soft that he thought he was on mats at gymnastics.

Our sweet baby

Love this pic of the boys!

and yes I went a little camera happy trying to get some pics of the boy.

It was a beautiful night with my family and Uncle Connor. We had the best time!

Then we headed back to Long Boat, Connor headed home and the next day we woke up and spent the day at the beach and the pool all over again. It was so nice for us to get away for a little while. It has been crazy here with the move and Jarod starting his new job. Jacoby asked his Dad every morning if he had to go to work today and when he said no, Jacoby would start cheering. We love spending time together especially at our favorite place, the beach!
