Cruise 2007!!

Rob and I are VERY excited....we are going on a cruise this coming weekend, Oct. 26-29!!My parents are taking us on the cruise for a Christmas present, wahoo! The awesome thing is that it's out of Seattle, so we don't even have to take a flight, we just have to drive an hour to the port! We are going to Vancouver, B.C. and Naninamo, B.C. and maybe Victoria, B.C. (I'm not sure about that last one!!)

So we are thrilled and can't wait to go! I've been doing alot of online research to prepare for bringing an infant on a cruise, it should be interesting, but very fun. I'm really excited also b/c we have her grandparents with us to let us go out one night and do the tag team babysitting.

We're going to bring her pack-n-play to sleep in and hang a sheet around it b/c when we stayed with some friends, we were in the same room as her and she would wake up and start screaming when she saw us and then wanted to play, multiple times throughout the night.

Also, we are going to be very flexible at dinner and see how long she can last in the dining room and once she's had it we'll take turns bringing her out where she can crawl around, while the other person can finish their dinner.

We'll see how it goes, but I'm very excited!

Rob's brother Rodney took this picture at the top of the continental divide in Colorado. I was pregnant with Breanna at the time....I love this picture because of the amazing background and how he captured the beautiful scene.
We went to Capitol Hill in Olympia on Sunday and it was BEAUTIFUL outside, talk about a perfect fall day. We ended up spending almost 3 hours walking around the capitol, lake and and beautiful historic homes.
Breanna did very well chilling in her stroller, she was a happy girl. This is at the end when she was tired, it was 7pm and she needed to get home so she could go to bed...I love her face, it makes me crack up!

This is at the lake near the capitol, we go there to see the ducks and seagulls and it has a great walking trail. Breanna laughs at the ducks...she just loves animals.

At home eating, which she loves to do....she's starting to be able to do finger foods now, so that's really fun and exciting (especially for her) but very messy!

Have so much fun on your cruise! We took Samantha with our family when she was almost 6 months old and we had a great time. Just over pack...it's better to have way to much than not enough, especially when it comes to toys and stuff. Another suggestion, call the cruise line, most of them have pack and plays that they'll bring to your room on the ship, then you don't have to lug yours around.
