What's Jakob Doing?: 2015

On January 22nd, we took the opportunity to visit Orlando since Daddy was there for a conference. Mommy and Jakob flew together on an afternoon flight. Jakob was very good (albeit very excited) and all of the flight attendants were so nice to him. On Thursday night, we went to Friendly's for some dinner and ice cream after meeting Daddy at his hotel. He woke up Friday and was so excited that the first thing he did was pull back the curtains to see where we were. He was so excited when he looked out the window and discovered we were "on top of a mountain" (so high in the hotel). It was a beautiful day--sunny and 80 degrees which made it a perfect day for a trip to Legoland! Jakob had a blast but it was a long day. He slept all the way back to the hotel (an hour). Saturday morning was rainy and breezy but it turned out to be a beautiful day and we celebrated Jakob's 1/2 birthday (3 1/2) with a trip to Gatorland. He had been talking about seeing the gators all week. He had fun but I don't think the gators were as thrilling as he had hoped. He really enjoyed the shows where they fed the alligators and another one where they wrestled with them. His favorite adventure was probably the canaries where they flew all around him and sat on his arm and shoulders. He was very sad to leave Orlando but said he had a great time! Hopefully we'll be back soon for a trip to Disney!
