Welcome to Miami (Bienvenido a Miami)

Our first trip as a family and I can't lie, it couldn't have gone any better. Well maybe besides the hurricane type winds the last two days but other than that we had a blast. Collins loves vacation and was so good. When I talked about big girl status last post she killed it in Miami. Sitting in high hairs, staying up past 10pm, and hitting up Lincoln Road for the last two nights :) 

We got to Miami on Friday morning and immediately hit the breakfast bar. Momma needed to eat and Collins was hungry herself. We were the first ones to arrive at the hotel for the wedding so we had some time to relax as a family from our early morning plane ride. Oh wait! I forgot Collins has found her niche. She's definitely going to be a flight attendant when she is older. This girl LOVED the plane ride. Never made a peep. Unless of course she was giggling or flirting with the passengers. As I write this I'm knocking on wood she cooperates tonight for our night flight...

Friday and Saturday consisted of all the wedding festivities. Marty was in the wedding like I said before so Collins and I had girls day for the better half of Saturday we had a nice little lunch Oceanside then took a little nap before the wedding. She did okay at the wedding. A little fussy but that we as to be expected, blaring music and a ton of people all having too good of a time (as expected) it was time for mommy and Collins to call it a night. Luckily daddy got to party all night and from what we heard the next morning he was quite party goer :) 

We set off to our next destination on Sunday morning, Surfcomber Hotel off of Collins Avenue :) For the next few days we spent our time shopping on Lincoln Road, taking a dip in the pool, and bringing Collins to the beach for the first time. Unfortunately the wind has been a Debbie for us and with sand flying in your face Collins could only take so much. Collins was great at night for us. We were able to do dinner both nights as a family and even celebrate our anniversary on Monday night with some Sushi. 

Overall a great time was had by all. Vacationing is definitely different as a parent, and as a mom there really isn't such a thing as vacation but I wouldn't trade it for the world. Seeing Collins face light up when we took her out on the town, or when we took her on the beach made it all worth the few times a day I'd have to sit and wait in the room while she napped :) 

Until next time!
