...with the vacation in photos.

Well, we survived our first trip traveling with an infant! I must say, it couldn't have gone any better. I am now jinxing myself for every future trip we take with our child!
We left on a Friday early in the morning and were in Puerto Rico by 4pm local time. Our flight consisted of a 1.5 hour flight into Baltimore with a 2 hour layover followed by a 4 hour flight into San Juan. I must confess, we did upgrade our seats to Business Class on the 4 hour leg of the flight. Completely.worth.every.penny! The extra room to move about in our seats with an infant was priceless, especially since the flight was full. Elena was an absolutely fantastic mini-traveler. She nursed on take-off and landing. In between, she played, napped and made a few friends :) On our return flight, we upgraded once again on the 4 hour portion of our flight!
Our time in Puerto Rico was precious. Elena was introduced to many family members and she loved the attention and was very social!
I don't want to give too lengthy of a written synopsis of the trip, so I will do so in pictures! Enjoy!
