Jekyll Island is a second home to me. I started coming here when I was Isla's age and my mom was coming before that. My grandparents rent a house for a week every year, and we all come down to just relax. Now that we are all older with jobs and kids, it is a lot harder for us to all be there at the same time. This year Stacia is 40 weeks pregnant, my mom is there with her, Glenn has an internship, Ashley has a new job, the list goes on. But Robby took the week off so we were able to stay the entire week.

Last year I was pregnant with Isla and could not stop talking about what it would be like to bring her the next year. Ever since she was born I've been thinking about the week that I would get to bring her here. That week did not disappoint. My little traveler was so happy the entire time. She had a smile on her face every time we went to the pool, beach, shops, restaurant. She did get a little bored in the house, or tired of the car, but overall the trip was more than a success. It makes me ever more excited for next year. Hopefully all of the cousins will be there together (Isla, Kane, Kohen and Baby Steele)!

Also, Isla decided this week to start saying mama again, become a picky eater, take her first couple of steps unassisted and cut two more teeth!
