First Vacation

Well, we survived our first cross-country flight with miss Rylee...woohoo

On the way out to Maryland we took the red-eye flight.  All was going well until our flight was delayed due to technical difficulties which in turn created an angry, screaming monster.  However, once we finally took off Rylee slept the whole way.  The flight home was a little different.  Our flight was at 5PM and our plan was we would feed her dinner as soon as we got on the plane so she would be occupied during take off.  This seemed to work but there were people taking their sweet time getting ready so there was a slight upset (not as bad as the flight out though).  After she ate she fell asleep for about a half hour and then the rest of the flight was spent keeping her occupied enough to keep her from screaming.  For some reason this little girl did NOT want to sit still in her seat which resulted in mom and dad standing up the whole flight.  Oh well, at least she was somewhat happy.

Rylee got to meet her whole family!  It was so fun to watch everyone with her and she was loving every minute of the attention.  She is definitely a loved baby and I am so thankful that she got the opportunity to meet Ryan's side of the family, including her other GREAT grandparents.  I wish we were all closer so she could spend more time with everyone.

The trip was very relaxing, it's so nice to have grandma and grandpa around to keep Rylee entertained all day and to get up with her in the mornings, especially since there was a 3 hour time difference -- which Rylee had no problem with (thank goodness).

Here are some pictures of our trip
