In some of our previous blog posts we talked about some of the first we were going to experience this vacation. Today, actually yesterday evening, there was another first. But not just a first on this vacation, but really a first-first.

Sander and I noticed in the last couple of weeks that Emily was starting to show some symptoms of teething. The biting on everything she gets her hands on, drooling so much that she needed several shirts a day. And yesterday evening it was there, Emily’s first tooth showed up. A milestone if I may say so.

This meant we had to go shopping again today because we didn’t pack a toothbrush for Emily on this vacation.

In the afternoon we drove to the Florida Mall since this is an indoor mall and it’s still pretty cold outside. We parked at the Macy’s and started our stroll through the mall there. We bought some nice jeggings for Emily, had a Starbucks and lunch in the dining pavilion. And off course we bought a toothbrush at CVS.

  
Before we went back to the villa we I changed Emily’s diaper and I don’t know how it is in Europe but in Canada and also here in the US complete strangers like to get really close to babies. So as I was changing Emily’s diaper an older woman came standing next to me and started smiling and talking to Emily. But she didn’t like it and started screaming and almost scared the woman. But how would you feel lying there and some stranger starts talking to you… The only thing I could do was laugh. By the way, the woman apologized later 😉

The evening was as usual, we had dinner and Emily went to bed at 7:00 pm, she was exhausted and slept right away with her little friend Dumbo.
