Greg and I had a great time re-living our honeymoon and exploring new places! We flew in a day early so we could have some alone time and celebrate his birthday before the rest of his colleagues arrived. \u00a0On Thursday, we rented a car and spent the afternoon shopping in Pa’Ia. In route to Pa’Ia, we even saw a rainbow \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The flight home was surprisingly a breeze. \u00a0We both slept for the majority of the flights and when we finally landed in Chicago, we headed straight to HP to see Joey! \u00a0We had a blast, but we’re both SOOO happy to be back with our little guy. \u00a0It’s amazing how much he’s changed in the last week. \u00a0He’s walking everywhere no and saying “no no” to just about everything.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
