Our first family vacation: Caribbean Cruise
This vacation has been in the works over the past few months and Ted's aunt, Christina had to coordinate the schedules of many family members in order to get the greatest attendance...all in all she did very well, but both Marcus and Tom were definitely missed.
Preparing for a vacation typically consists of Ted and I ensuring we've got adequate clothes, most importantly our swimsuits, for the duration of our trip, but this trip consisted of a little more planning. I had no idea what kinds of things were must-haves for a 7-month old to travel well. I did not want to be those people who drive the rest of the passengers nuts with a wailing baby. All in all we did very well...especially for our first trip, and Ke'akua traveled like a champ.
Thanks Chris for coordinating such a great trip! :)
Hope you enjoy all the pictures from our trip:
