Levi the Traveler - Part 2: Hilton Head Island

The second part of our trip to Hilton Head Island was a blast. 1 whole week of R & R at the beach with the Rosenfelds!

Despite the delays with our flights, Levi traveled well once again (thank goodness). We traveled through Chicago, and he hung in there through our flight delays, changing terminals and multiple flights.

It was pretty hot and humid during our trip so we found ourselves staying cool in the AC or at the beach almost every day. On the beach Levi hung out in the beach tent while we each of us rotated hanging out with him. He mostly slept each day we were at the beach because it was so warm. The atlantic was incredible and so warm...such a change from the cold Pacific ocean. 

Jeff and I were able to get out for a date on Wednesday night, which was so nice. We definitely talked about the little guy a bunch but tried to have 'adult conversation' as well. We both had fresh seafood (to start - Seared Ahi Tuna ‘Carpaccio’, for dinner I had a 'blue crab' crab cake and Jeff had the Palette', and assortment of seafood and steak). Everything was delicious. It was great to get some time out to ourselves as husband and wife, not just mommy and daddy.

On Thursday night we had some professional family photos taken on the beach. The photographer got some really great shots of Levi and some wonderful pictures of the family all together. We are so thankful that we will have some incredible pictures to frame.

We also had lunch at The Salty Dog Cafe, made it to the infamous lighthouse at Harbourtown and saw other parts of the island during our trip. It was a wonderful trip and are looking forward to going back when Levi can have some fun in the sun and play in the sand and the ocean.
