We were lucky enough to get to go to St. Thomas, USVI with my parents for a week!
Caleb was so excited to go on vacation ... we talked about it forever so when it actually was time to go I don't think he believed us!
On the bus to the airport.
Lexi did really well on the airplane ride down there!
Caleb is perfectly content with the iPad while we are flying (whew!):
Yaya and Papi took a turn entertaining the little girl for awhile!
Caleb finally crashed when we were on the way to the resort from the airport:
Luckily they gave us some yummy fruit juice when we got there!
Cheers!
Not a bad view for an afternoon snack!
We immediately headed to the pool!
... but took a dip in the ocean first!
Both Lexi and Caleb are such water babies!
Caleb was obsessed with my toes being painted.
She got stuck. Always pushing boundaries and sometimes it catches up to her!
She loved having the patio to go out and play on when she woke up!
He still can't believe he's "finally on vacation".
Fun breakfast outside!
Batman headed out to swim.
There were HUGE iguanas everywhere!
Caleb loved swimming with everyone!
Snack break.
Baby girl got to do some swimming after her nap!
Caleb wanted to brave the ocean again!
Lexi loved being in the ocean with the waves and on the sand!
Caleb and his "muscles".
Taking the golf cart up to look in the gift shop.
Caleb making a bracelet at the reception.
Sunrise pictures ... because, heck, we were already awake anyway!
Sibling tackle.
We had access to the Ritz Carlton hotel since we were staying at the Villas, so we went up there to enjoy their pool too!
Daddy's hat catches the water the best.
Papi was the first to fall prey to the stomach bug. Lexi was next. This is the last picture before everyone went downhill (quickly)!!
The calm before the storm ...
Michael, Caleb and Yaya in the infinity pool.
... and she's down. Poor thing caught the stomach bug the worst out of everyone.
Papi bounced back quickly and was able to help keep Caleb occupied ... until Caleb caught it :/
We had another day where everyone felt ok and we got some outside time to play bocci ball and checkers.
Sweet Pea still wasn't 100% tho.
Those curls. It springs right up when she is in the humid air!
We were trying to get her some outside time so we moved the pack and play out to the patio.
Caleb figured out the card lock on the doors!
Yaya getting some snuggles.
We all braved outside the last day and had some fun in the ocean.
Bathtime!
... and then I caught it. Then Michael caught it. So we got to travel home with the bug. Most. Miserable. Drive/Flight/Drive. Ever!! Yaya was lucky enough (?) to not catch it until we got back to Virginia. Oof. It was a beautiful resort, but pretty sure we won't be going back after getting SO sick there!!
Our big helper rolling his Yaya's bag for her :)
To top it all off, we had to drive home from Dulles in the worst rainstorm/tornado warning I've been caught in. Then a tornado actually touched down in our town. Lady luck was not with us!
