Traveling with two boys under 2, no, make that under 1 \u00bd, is pure chaos at times. We need a vacation now that we are home from vacation! Eli is pretty easy to travel with. He has always been a very flexible baby with nap times and bed times. He can pretty much sleep anywhere, which is a huge blessing. Jonah on the other hand loves his rocking chair and it calms him no matter what. Well, we did not have a rocking chair this past week, but we did survive.<\/p>\n<p>On the positive side of things, we got to spend time with my family, some of whom I have not seen in probably 6 years. We spent some time at a really nice resort that my parents get every year through their business, Eli got to enjoy some beach time (as did we) and spending time with my parents and sister&#8217;s family is always worth the trouble of traveling.<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-308 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC03995.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC03995-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-310\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-310'>\n\t\t\t\tStand off\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04006-e1378497350712.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04006-e1378497350712-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-311\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-311'>\n\t\t\t\tFirst time on a carousel \n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04015.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04015-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-312\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-312'>\n\t\t\t\tBeach bum\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04025-e1378497493944.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04025-e1378497493944-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-313\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-313'>\n\t\t\t\tLoving the water\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04038.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/brion-kendzora\/files\/2013\/09\/DSC04038-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-314\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-314'>\n\t\t\t\tOur little family \n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vacation- a period of time devoted to rest, travel or recreation.
