Hilton Head or Bust!

With some VERY creative packing we were able to fit 4 adults, JT, and all of JT's stuff into a rented Suburban. About 12 hours later we arrived. Friday and Saturday were spent recovering from the car ride. JT really was well behaved, but he is so over the car seat thing.

Sunday we went to Savannah so JT could meet his not-so-secret admirer, Abby! We fought the rain that's plaguing this vacation and managed to walk a little of the river, have dinner, and a little gelato (not as good as in Milan).

Monday everyone else hit the golf course, while Mom, JT, and I went to the beach. He loves the beach! Loves the freedom to crawl and eat sand! The surf is a little rough for him, but he enjoys the water at the pool. Yesterday was more beach time and then long naps and an afternoon of my birthday present . . . a wii! Even dad has been playing some of the games that don't hurt him.

So far this trip JT has figured out how to use a sippy cup, started holding his own bottle when he feels like it, learned to scream even louder than before, gotten his hair trimmed, decided he no longer wants baby food, and has figured out he's a bottom-less pit! The boy is eating a ton of "real" food - the other night he had some baby food, half an order of mac n cheese, cookies, biscuits, and topped it off with a bottle on the way home. It's been so much fun to spend all of this time with him, but it's taking 6 adults to keep him occupied!

They're calling for rain everyday, thanks to Fay or Fran or whatever that tropical storm is. It's okay though, we're making the most of our days. We only have 2 days left before we hit the road! It does fly by.
