First Vacation to Key West

Lucien went on his first vacation and he had many other "firsts" throughout the trip.  It was Lucien's 1st road trip - a drive that was about 6 hours long.  Lucien's 1st stop at John Pennekamp state park in Key Largo.  And Lucien's 1st trip to Key West.  There will definitely be many more as Lucien had a great time down there with Grandma and Grandpa.  Luckily we were able to rent a few baby items from Holiday Baby so we had a high chair, stroller, and exersaucer all handy.  Lucien was so excited being down there that he took his 1st steps! He also started doing his 1st head nods, which unfortunately throw him off balance.  We went down to Fort Zachary Taylor state park (where Mommy and Daddy 1st met) and Lucien took his 1st swim in the ocean.  He couldn't dive down for lobster just yet but Daddy was able to nab 8 of them.  He loved meeting all the new people and watching the traffic lights change colors.  On our way back home he went to his 1st restaurant and ate lunch from the wooden high chair.  It surely was a big trip that tuckered out Mom more than ever but all the wonderful memories are well worth it.
