We have taken full advantage of living out here in Florida. We are really close to a lot of fun places to visit, so a few weeks ago we went up to Savannah GA and Tybee Island for the weekend. It was established in the early 1700's and has so much history and gorgeous buildings and streets. Unfortunately I only had my iPhone and was wrestling Cohen during our tour so most of the pictures are not great quality but here are a few.

| The cute trolly that took us all around downtown for our tour. |
 |
| This is a real pirate house right on the water. |
 |
| Like I said, not great quality, but here is one of the squares around the historic district with huge oak trees hanging with Spanish moss. |
 |
| Tybee Island light house. Ever see the Last Song with Miley Cyrus? Me either, haha, but it was filmed on Tybee Island |
|
| Walking up the 178 steps of the light house. I had Addison strapped to my in my front pack and my legs were sore for a WEEK! and totally shaking by the time we got down. Slightly embarrassing, but true. |
The next weekend we went to Crystal River, which is one of only 2 places in the US you can swim with manatees. It was THE COOLEST thing ever! We had an underwater camera so I'll have pics soon. We took a boat up the river to a natural spring that warms the water in the winter, so literally hundreds of manatees come here every year and you can just snorkel around, pet them and swim with them. Cohen loved it and called them "water doggies". Not sure why, but very cute :)
 |
| This is exactly what we got to do. |
 |
They are super sweet and really curious. They would swim right up to you and let you pet them.
In other news... |
 |
| This cutie pie is 5 months old! and got her first tooth. She is such a ray of sunshine and sleeps so well and only cries when she's hungry. She thinks Cohen is hillarious and he can always get her to laugh and smile. |
 |
| My crazy lil man turned 2!! He is talking SOO much these days. Its amazing how in literally a few weeks he can go from just a few words to full sentences. He'll come in and say "mommy, ready for lunch" or "come watch a show, mama". Because kids are little parrots I now know the things that I say all the time because Cohen will say them now too. "Addie, whats wrong? Its ok honey" |
 |
| Paul celebrated his 28th birthday! We went to a great dinner with some friends to Maggiano's, a super tasty Italian restaurant in town. |
