Last week we all traveled across country—for the very first time—for a week's vacation at the Rubin family cabin in Priest Lake, Idaho. We were a bit apprehensive since Beia had never traveled by air, nor crossed time zones before. In the end, Beia traveled West like a champ—every bit the happy little girl we are used to.
The time at the lake was wonderful. Beia got to meet her "big" cousin, Max, who is just six weeks older than her. She also got to meet some more aunts and uncles, as well as spend some quality with her paternal grandparents. Of course Beia loved the lake itself, and we discovered that a boat ride is a sure-fire way to lull a baby to sleep—after the fussiness of having to wear a life jacket!
Beia also got to experience quality time with not one but three (!) dogs—Bailey, Blue, and Dylan—and she adored them all. Apparently she finds dogs hysterically fun and enjoyed watching them chase after toys (and each other), as well as see them splashing in the water!
The way back East was not as successful, but we did learn that the red eye flight is not for us. We are still working our way back to a "normal" sleep schedule, but the trip was worth it and we are looking forward to visiting again next year.
