Christmas celebration in Winter Garden Dec. 16

 On our way to FL, the view was beautiful.
 Mia gives Soph big hugs.
 Soph finds Papa Joe's nose!
 Uncle Trey helps out, in style, at the mall.

 Great Grandmom and Granddad giving Sophie a steering wheel.
 Headed back to daddy in San Francisco, we found Santa had a layover in Philly too.

 Vigin America Airlines Rocks!!!!


Sophia and I packed up again and headed to the airport.  This time we are just in for a quick weekend.  Everyone is so excited.  The plane trip seemed less daunting this time.  I've really got things into a routine with her as far as flying goes.  5.5 hrs to Philly. 1hr lay over. 2.2 hrs to Orlando. It's all in the timing.  We left at 11 Pacific time and get in at 11 Eastern time.  This flight worked the best for her schedule.  Even if you have to pay more,  you have to get a flight that times out with her eating on the decent and that doesn't interfere with bedtime.  She can nap out, but don't mess with bedtime.  You realize how sacred it is when you speak with parents who don't have a good sleeper. We want to do everything in our power to make it easy for her to go to bed.  The wknd in FL was awesome and way too quick.  Sophie totally recognized everyone this time.  She was a happy girl and was so ready for all her interactive Christmas toys.  Eric and I held off on new stuff since Christmas was coming!  She even enjoyed unwrapping.  She got the hang of Christmas way too easily.  Eric was able to watch her open gifts via iChat.   She loved all the buttons and talking and singing on her jungle, steering wheel, and Laugh and Play Kitchen!!! Eric had 4 shows over the wknd, so he was kept busy while we were gone.  He actually took off Thursday and Friday nights to rest his mind and body.  It gave him more rest for us not to be there.  We know he loves us, but sometimes even hearing me get up with Soph makes sleep not as sound.  Sophie and I iChatted with the Danly family Christmas gathering on Saturday night.  It was great to see everyone gathered together at Aunt Mary and Uncle Dave's this year.  Somehow, we didn't even know it was even happening, but thanks to iChat we were able to be there.  Trey and Ariana stayed the night on Saturday to get a full dose of Sophie.  She sure has a lot of love in FL.  It was a nice break for mommy's arms to have Mia, Papa Joe, Grandmom, Granddad, Trey and Ariana all eagerly waiting to hold and love on her if she's happy, sad or anything in between.  Got Eric's Christmas shopping done!  Yay!  We headed back on Sunday, so we could be there for Eric's day off.  It's the first day in weeks that he hasn't had press or rhsl or traveling or something.  We are planing to relax and go see the Full House house(the pink ladies.). It will be a nice, chill day.  P.S.  This Virgin America flight back to SF is awesome!  Soph and I feel like rock stars.  In flight TV, big seats, cool vibe, LED purple lights.  Love it!
 REUNITED AND IT FEELS SO GOO-OOD!!!!    Daddy met us at the airport in San Fran!
