The 3rd annual cruise is in the books and what a ride it was. What was supposed to be a seven day cruise turned into a nine day cruise, we picked up 58 Haitian refugees during the trip and had to change our course several times because of Tropical Storm Isaac. Fortunately, the waves and weather were good enough to still enjoy our vacation.
We ported out of Ft. Lauderdale's Port Everglades and left on the Allure of the Seas just as Tropical Storm Isaac was taking form in the Atlantic. Our first stop was Nassau, Bahamas where mommy & daddy went snorkeling at the rainbow reef. It had been some time since either of us had used anything besides a digital camera, so the pictures are less than extraordinary. Most of them turned out with either fingers/hands in the shot or were so blurry nothing was recognizable. These were the only shots we got, sadly, nothing under water.
After leaving the Bahamas, our next ports of call were supposed to be St. Maarten and St. Thomas, however, we ended up being rerouted to Jamaica and Cozumel. We didn't get off the ship in Jamaica, but did in Cozumel, where we got Abs some really cute maracas, which she loved.
Abby enjoyed all the time she got to spend with her cousins, Ella, Reece & Scarlett. Abby & Reece particularly enjoyed each other's company and we're sure that the two of them will be T-R-O-U-B-L-E in the very near future. We can't wait to see when Scarlett can join all the shenanigans as well.
During our trip we got to enjoy lots of great shows, lots of great food and of course lots of great company! What a wonderful trip, thanks to Papa & BB!
Much love,
Moises & Jennifer

Abby girl is now 14 months old! She has 6 teeth (two on bottom and four on top). The teeth really came in fast after the first one finally popped in when she was a little over ten months old. She's getting faster everyday and really enjoys playing with her doggies. She thinks that all dogs are called "Ginger", which was her first word besides "mama" & "dada". We've been trying to teach her more words and she's been doing well with that and can say/identify correctly "agua" (water) and "pan" (bread). She's really starting to mimick us now and any time she picks up a cell phone, she puts it to her ear and says "hello". We are working on identifying people and body parts. She does great with her belly button and nose, but is still working on ears, eyes & mouth. She is still our laid back baby girl! We love her so much and just love everyday with her.
