a weekend of firsts

First plane ride:



First hotel stay:


First wedding and, simultaneously, first trip to the zoo:


First trip to the beach:


In conclusion, we survived. Elias had some less than desirable stretches during our four night stay in San Diego for his uncle's wedding, but overall he performed better than expected. Our red-eye back to Boston went surprisingly smoother than the long trip there and he was a total charmer at the wedding itself, where he met lots of extended family members for the first time.

More details to follow. For now, I should probably head to bed. We have our follow-up appointment with the GI doc tomorrow morning and, seeing as how we all seem to be on west coast time still (and slept until a little after 8 this morning!), it may be more difficult than usual to make it there by 9.

Elias is so so awfully cute. He really looks excited by the world in those pictures.

Thanks for the compliments! We (and by we I mean Elias) are taking our sweet, sweet time getting back on east coast time (it's currently Neal's turn to try and get him to sleep), but it's good to be home, nonetheless!
