We had the opportunity to take a dream vacation to St Thomas in the US Virgin Islands for the first week of May. Wow! What a beautiful place! It was so much fun being able to spend some time with family, bask in the sun on gorgeous white sand beaches and snorkel in crystal clear, turquoise water! Jackson was a trooper and we couldn't have asked for a better baby! He not only hung out with us daily at the resort pool or on a beach but he took 2 ferry rides across the Caribbean with hardly any complaints! What a man we have! He continues to grow and astonishes both Josh and I daily with all of his progress! He now rolls over from his stomach to his back and holds his head high while having tummy time. He is working really hard on imitating our facial expressions and amazes us at how advanced he is! Below are several pictures from our trip; hope you enjoy them!
Jackson entertained us with all his new "tricks" our first night at the resort.
Waiting for the ferry on Jost van Dyke, an island in the British Virgin Islands.

I liked this picture I took of a palm on the beach at our resort.
This is the view from our resort balcony. We got to watch the cruise ships come in and out of the port.
Another angle of our view from our room.
Jackson hanging out with us at Cinnamon Bay on St. John. Kenny Chesney sings about this beach and bay and we could see his home on the hillside-no Kenny sitings though! :)

Aren't my men sooo cute? I love them!

What a fun trip!! How nice, warm and relaxing :) Jackson is so cute, I can't believe how big he is getting. You look amazing I hope I look like that 7 weeks after having a baby :)
Wow it is beautiful! I can't believe he is rolling over already! He is an early learner! :) You better start baby proofing!
I still talk to the old roomies there, so I'll just let them know I have something coming and they'll get it to me.no worries
Looks like you guys are doing great at the whole parent thing. I can tell you are having a blast with it and not letting it slow you down. That is great!
We miss you guys. If you are ever back in Florida, stop by and see us.
