Hi everyone!
I am a picture fanatic so this post will be dedicated to a few pics from our family cruise. We went this past August and had a great time! It was an amazing experience and we all enjoyed ourselves! We stopped at some beautiful ports in a week span. Thank you Carnival for the memories!
This summer we went on our first family cruise. We did it right before the beginning of the school year as a way to close out our summer. It was a 7 day cruise leaving from the Port of Miami to the Grand Cayman Islands, Roatan Island, Belize, and Cozumel.
We flew into Fort Lauderdale a day in advance and then took a cab over to Miami. We stayed at a Marriot close to the Port. We didn’t have a car so we mostly just walked around the surrounding area to do some exploring. We ended up doing a late night Target run and were able to get some necessities for our trip that we were missing.
This post will focus on some of the items I felt were important to have on this cruise especially traveling with a family. I will do a post and share some great pictures at a later time.
Items to bring in no specific order:
These were the key items to have. The cruise ship helped with our milk supply as it was available 24/7 for the baby.
I will keep updating this as I receive feedback. Feel free to share your own tips and I can continue to keep this growing!

So today is the day my fiance and I finally posted our little guy to social media. I was not very happy about this at all but nonetheless it was bound to happen. I know it seems silly as we live in an age where everything seems to be on social media, but that is what I have a problem with!
I admit I was trying to be selfish with my son but with good reason. Social media can suck you in and either uplift you or bring you down. No matter how much you try not to let it affect you, it can! I was simply trying to avoid any negativity that could be given out towards my son whether direct or indirect.
My wish was to wait until he was 1 to present him to “friends” but daddy couldn’t hold on much longer and felt it went with his birthday theme this week. I really cannot be that upset so instead I embraced it and shared it.
Below you will find my 7 month old who looks exactly like his father with mom’s complexion. He has a part of my heart and makes me melt as soon as he is in my presence. He is growing everyday and is constantly exploring his surroundings. He keeps us busy but has brought joy to our family. He is truly a blessing and I am thankful for every moment I get with him.
