In December we spent 18 days in Hawaii. Since we were going for Christmas and visiting Doug's brother and his wife, taking Brody with was a "no-brainer".

We didn't have a "lay-on-the-beach-and-do-nothing" vacation. I don't think such thing exists when you bring a 20 month old with you. It was very fun to watch him explore his new surroundings, play in the sand, splash in the ocean and chase after wild chickens!!
