Moved to a New Hotel


Our first night with Esther in the hotel went pretty well.  We set alarms to wake up to feed her.  The alarms woke us up, she didn't cry much to let us know she wanted to eat (not yet anyway).  

This was what the night time feeding and diapering station looked like in the morning.

Isaiah loved this fountain that was next to our hotel.  This was us saying good-bye fountain.

On Saturday (11-24) we moved to a different hotel.  The plan was to find a nice hotel that was closer to the doctor's office we would be visiting on Monday, closer to Ft. Lauderdale (the airport we would be flying out of to go home), and cheaper.  We found a condo through Vacation Rental By Owner (VRBO.com) that we thought was going to be perfect.  Well, we drove there and it was NOT in a good area.  We decided against that plan so we went to a close by McDonald's to regroup.  Esther needed to eat, people needed to use the restroom, and we did some online searching on our phone. While standing by the van, a car drove by and the driver told us not to leave our car and that people were watching us.  That was our confirmation that we were NOT in a good area and we needed to get out of there. We loaded up and ended up deciding to stay at the Residence Inn.  We rented a two bedroom suite.  It was really nice and we felt safe, but it was a little expensive.  Our plan was just to stay for a night or two and then move again to another hotel (still hoping for a cheaper option) but since moving was so stressful and Isaiah finally relaxed and played with his toys at this place we decided to forgo a cheaper option and just stay at this hotel until we had clearance to come home.

Isaiah was happy to have us all together in one room.  He played toys for a long time today.
