An Adventure in Parenthood: Stamps, Stamps, Stamps for my passport

December 18-22nd, 2011

Koh Samui, Thailand

Yet another stamp for the little man in his passport. This makes three, Indonesia, Australia, and now Thailand. Traveling with a 4 month old was interesting to say the least. It was a direct flight which was awesome and only an hour and half but it was at his bedtime which makes it a little more difficult. He did great though, some bumps along the way but for the most part it was smooth sailing...

I had the forethought to get a hotel room with a pool and big enough that we could all move around in freely. It was awesome, Dirk and I hung out at our own pool while Dylan napped inside! Such a relaxing holiday with room service, wine by the pool, and a gorgeous view of the sunset.

Dylan had a couple of firsts on the trip. He got into the swimming pool, well his feet did, it was a little too cold for him to swim. We used the bath tub instead for his blow up frog and he had a blast. Also stuck his feet in the ocean an let waves hit him for the first time. He seemed to really enjoy that. And yes, we might be crazy, but he took his first elephant ride.

In true Thai fashion all the hotel staff loved him, they love babies in general. We never had a problem with him coming to dinner or being bored, they even taught him some Muay Thai moves one night.

It was a great family vacation... can't wait to do it again in New Zealand.
