Flying the Friendly Skies & Florida Vacation Days 1-3
Greetings! From sunny Siesta Key, FL. It's been a few days since we've posted, and we've got a lot of catching up to do so, without further adieu
The Webers woke up at 3:15 a.m on Saturday morning in order to get Norah ready for her first airplane ride. An hour and a half later, after a hearty bottle and some last minute packin', Norah-Belle was on her way to Dayton Int'l Airport to catch a 5:50 a.m flight to Siesta Key, FL.
As we have come to expect from our little girl, she did wonderful! She sat nice and quiet most of the time (even falling asleep on Mommy's lap during the first leg of the trip)and didn't seem to have any inner-ear problems whilst taking off and landing at all. Most of the crew and several passengers even commented on what a good little traveler Norah was, and the captain even gave her her first set of wings! We touched down in Atlanta at around 7:10 a.m and Norah chalked up State # 8 on her list of states visited (we're going for all 50 by the time she's 1 :-)
After a mechanical problem forced us to de-plane, reclaim our carry-on luggage and board another plane, we finally got to Sarasota (State #9) around Noon. Again, Norah was great. She was a bit squirmy, but we don't blame her (So were we!) We packed up the rental car, got Norah's car seat all set up and headed straight for the Condo and the Beach.
A quick note about Siesta Key: The city and condo has a special place in the heart's of the Weber family. Dan has been coming here since he was just a bit older than Norah. D & J honeymooned here, and they even came here last year when J was about 4.5 months pregnant with Norah. So, this place holds a lot of memories for us, and we are delighted to be making more of them with our daughter.
The pictures speak for themselves. All that you see are firsts for Norah (as well as some just really cute, candid shots) and are in order Day 1-3. As you can see, all of the excitement has left Norah plum tuckered each night as she's been falling asleep in Daddy's arms during her 'nightcap' bottle.
We hope you enjoy. Next up: a trip to Tampa tomorrow to visit Great Grandma Weber.
