We went to Florida over Easter and had quite a nice time. It was so nice to get away from the cold weather and be able to wear shorts. LiLi has recently started to wear leggings as the weather has gotten warmer because she has figured out that she can pull them up to her knees and she seems to really enjoy having nothing on her legs so she really loves the freedom of summer wear.
In the few weeks before we went on vacation, LiLi would say something about wearing a dress to a party in Florida. She seemed to believe she would be going from one party to another because I had mentioned wearing a dress for Easter and for visiting at Aunt Anne, Gom and Capt E’s condo. Well in the end, she did get to go to a couple of parties including a birthday party for her the night we arrived since Nana and Poppie had been in Florida on her birthday.
Two days later, we went to our second party at the condo as mentioned above. LiLi, Nana and I went early in quest of alligators which is one of LiLi’s goals since last year at the condo, we spent about an hour watching an alligator. Also, we had gone on a airboat ride the day before and we had seen any alligators much to LiLi’s disappointment. So, Gom had promised us a mommy alligator and some babies and she delivered. We saw a mother alligator and 5 babies hanging out in the water. LiLi, Anne and I left the scene before the attempt by the alligator on a bird lirking nearby. Since that episode, LiLi and I have been watching some alligator videos on the National Geographic site and I think the alligator may have attacked the bird to protect her babies or maybe she was hungry. Anyhow, after seeing the alligator, we went to dinner on the beach and had a wonderful time.
