 Another relaxing day at the condo! The kids woke up at ate cereal together again. The McDougalls went to Cocoa Beach for the day so it was just the Alts and Kedleys at the condo.  Laura called and said that a rocket was going to be launched from Cocoa Beach- that would have been neat to see!

Teddy woke up a little slower this morning and wasn't quite acting himself.  We decided to head to Old Town for lunch.  As we were heading out I started thinking Teddy was really sick.  We put him in the stroller and went to a restaurant, but they were buffet only so we didn't stay.  As we were heading to the next restaurant Teddy felt hot and his eyes were watering. I decided to call it and took Teddy back to the condo while Rocky and Thom stayed with the Alts at Flipper's Pizzeria.

On Teddy and my way back to the condo I stopped at Walgreens to get some motrin and a thermometer. When we got back to the condo all Teddy wanted to do was rest in his bed. We had packed a covid test just in case, so I decided to covid test him. Unfortunately, he was positive so he was quarantined to his room.  

When Rocky and Thom got back Rocky took a nap in our room. Lauren, Thea and I decided to go to the pool. It was HOT and the sun was beating down. The pool felt great!

For dinner we decided to order from Smokey Bones and the kids had macaroni and cheese.  After the pool Teddy was starting to feel a little better so we went for a quick swim.  Teddy comes up with the sweetest lines sometimes. As we were leaving the pool he said, "Mom, take my picture by these palm trees so we can always remember the awesome trip we had in Florida. These palm trees are perfect." Even though he wasn't feeling the best, he still took the time to have a great trip and soak in the little, happy moments. 

We were sad because the Alts and McDougalls decided that with having to work on Monday that they were going to leave early Friday morning.  We said our goodbyes and wished them safe driving home.  The time flew with them. It was a wonderful trip!

 Our travel day began with swimming lessons, Renegade Running Club, cleaning and some last minute packing. We were waiting for the dog food and new shoes to arrive, but FedEx was moving rather slow. I called Solutions to see if they had the number of the FedEx driver and they tried to reach out. As we were just past New Virginia they called and said they had our packages. We turned around quickly to go get them. Unfortunately, when I opened the box we found that the magnetic security tag was still left on one of Rocky’s new shoes!  Nita and Jess generously dropped Mom off at the airport where we could meet her with the car seat and she could take our van with the dogs. Check in went smoothly and they allowed our 41 pound bag through (40 pounds was the limit).The TSA agent was so kind and gave the boys a junior officer badge sticker. Once we were through security we grabbed some sandwiches and went to the gate.  Our flight was only 10 minutes late taking off! Unfortunately, when I booke

 Teddy and Rocky woke up first this morning and woke me up. We got dressed and went to the lobby to check out and back in to our condo.  Then they wanted to go to the playground. We made a little trip to the playground before heading back to meet Thom. We had run a few errands so we loaded up in the convertible and away we went. Our first stop was Dick’s Sporting Goods to remove the security tag from Rocky’s shoes. Then we enjoyed lunch at Johnny Rockets. The boys liked the plate with the smiley face. I thought the burger was pretty good.  After a quick stop at Publix and Dollar Tree we headed back to the condo.  It took some convincing, but the boys went down for a nap before the rest of the crew arrived. I got an elliptical work out in before they arrived. The Alt family arrived about 3:15. We hung out for awhile and once the boys were awake we headed to the pool. The McDougall family arrived about 5:30 and joined us in the pool. We had dinner at Tony’s poolside as the lightning bega

The Tooth Fairy came last night! Teddy was so excited to wake up to $5 under his pillow.  Our flight was later in the evening so we had all day to still enjoy Florida. Unfortunately, when we woke up Rocky started not feeling well.  I tried calling Legacy to get our late check out extended but they were unable to do so, so after a little morning swim we said goodbye to the condo and went on our way.  We had heard about Icon Park and decided to check in out. It was rather crowded in the inside area (and rather costly) so we decided to just get lunch and keep moving. We went to the Yard House. The food was wonderful and they had great drinks too. The waitress was very sweet. Unfortunately, Rocky was still not feeling great. We decided to just head to the airport early, find a comfy spot, and wait.  While on the way Rocky threw up massively in the convertible. Luckily we were in a great spot and were able to pull into an office space parking lot. We stripped Rocky down and wiped him down w
