Cocoa Beach, Florida

Over the 4th of July holiday we went took a vacation to Florida.When Dan wanted to book this trip I cringed. I was very nauseous from the pregnancy and in no mood for a vacation. However, I started my 2nd trimester right before we left and did not feel nauseous at all (for the most part)! And I didn't feel as tired as before and even survived ALL day at Disneyworld. :) Anyway,  we stayed at my aunt and uncle's condo on Cocoa Beach and drove to Disneyworld for a couple days to visit the parks. We had so much fun. It was exhausting, but a blast. It was hot, but not as hot as I had anticipated. Cohen did really well at the beach and at Disney! Here are some pictures from our plane ride on the 3rd and our 4th of July.

On the airplane. Little known fact, or perhaps everyone knows this...our original flight was scheduled to leave at 8 something. However it was delayed until midnight! So I changed our flight to 7:20, which was delayed until 8:15. Perfect. Cohen's bedtime. We got to the airport in plenty of time. We kept checking the airport monitors to make sure our flight was still delayed. We were sitting there eating our dinner, when Dan heard an announcement about a flight to Orlando boarding. It was 7:00. So Dan went over and checked the monitor...our flight still said it was leaving at 8:15. We continued to eat. Then I heard the announcement. That was definitely our flight! So we had to walk briskly (we did not sprint! we were not those people! haha!) to our gate to board our plane. We, of course, asked the guy who scanned our tickets what was going on. They said that there is usually a delay on when the airport monitors get updated, and that is why they make announcements through out the airport. Really?! Ugh! Anyway, I'm glad that we made our flight. The only thing was that Cohen did not fall asleep at all. The entire way there, "airplane" "airplane" "airplane"...he may have drove the people around us crazy! Well, at least his mom and dad! :)

On the tram at the airport. Cohen is still wide awake!

And waiting for our luggage...and he was running around while we were waiting for our rental car and didn't fall asleep until we were on our way to the beach!


We ate breakfast on 4th of July morning at Cafe Surfinista, which Dan became a little obsessed with. :)
Cohen at the coffee shop. He, of course, just wanted to run around, with his shoes off apparently.

We finally made it to the beach!



Cohen loved the ocean! He enjoyed walking up to it and then as the water came up he would run away from it. He also walked into the water and let the waves hit him.  He was having a lot of fun, but for some reason  the next day he wouldn't play in the water at all! 









Cohen and Mommy

The idea of this picture is cute, too bad I'm picking at my swimsuit!








Cohen and Daddy

 :)

Love these two!












After some time at the beach we went to the pool at the condo. The water was really warm and Cohen loved swimming in the pool. And trying on sunglasses I guess.





The beach and pool wiped this kiddo out!

That night we went to the Sandbar for fish tacos. Well, I got a chicken sandwich, but Dan LOVES their fish tacos!

Cohen just wanted to explore...

....And sit at his own table!


Here are a couple videos from the beach!





 


More to come..!

Love, 
Katie
