I was so nervous last week as it kept getting closer and closer to Thursday. Would we forget something we would need on the plane or something we wouldn't be able to find in Orlando? Would Jacob not suck on his pacifier enough at take-off or at landing and cry the entire flight? Would he not sleep in a strange place? Would he make a lot of noise and completely disrupt the wedding?
We are so happy that Jacob was a very good baby the whole trip! In fact - he was less fussy than he is for me on a normal basis. After the flight over to Orlando, people on the plane commented on how good he was and that they didn't even know that a baby was right behind them!
Jacob handled everything in stride this weekend - the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, the ceremony and all the festivities afterward (which he almost completely slept through) and the brunch Sunday morning.
Things being the way there were - we didn't get very many pictures taken at Eric (Justin's brother) and Joanna'a wedding, but here are a few.
A bit dark, but here is the bridal party after the rehearsal.
Justin's mom and step-dad with Jacob.
There was actually only a small portion of actual cake in the beautiful cake so the bride and groom could cut it and feed each other - we had cupcakes instead!
Sadly this is the only decent picture we got of the happy couple. At least it is a really good picture though!
Here's our little family all dressed up.
One of the few times Jacob was awake for all the festivities on Saturday.

Look at those chunky cheeks! He is filling out fast. Glad the travel was better than you hoped for. Speaking of travel, I leave for Spring on Th morning with the two youngest kiddos. I have your number (I think) so I'll be calling you.
Jacob has grown a lot in the last two weeks! It looks like he likes you necklace in one of the pictures.
You did get a really good picture of the bride & groom.
So glad the trip went well.
So glad your trip went so well. Flying with babies can be a challenge and it's always a relief when things go well. Now you're a pro and can fly anywhere with your little man. I think it's easier to take them places now, when they hit almost two, much more of a challenge. :) Hope you're feeling better as well and staying warm in this crazy cold front. When ya coming back to church?
