  • Boat load of fun

    Boat load of fun

    On Wednesday Andy flew down and met us in Miami for w little family vacation. After more than 12 days on the road this month- we were all ready for some R & R. There we boarded the Disney Magic for a cruise to the Bahamas. Unfortunatly Hurricane Joaquin had other plans so our cruise turned out to be to Key West and Mexico. No big deal. We had each other, plenty of sunshine and a few fruity drinks so all was just right with the world!  

    Farewell Miami & hello Key West! 

         
        
        
      While on board Andrew LOVED the splash zone:

        
        
       

  • Magic Kingdom

    Magic Kingdom

    On Sunday we headed to the Magic Kingdom for a fun (and hot!) day of Disney.  

        
        
        
        
       Andrew’s favorites were the carousel and splash zone.  
        
     Watching and dancing in the parade.  

        
       And all this fun requires a nap at the Hall of Presidents. An Aunt Kelly tradition. 
     A truly fun and awesome day! ❤️

  • Baby’s First Disney World! 

    Baby’s First Disney World! 

    I had a business trip to Orlando which created an awesome opportunity for grandma, grandpa and Aunt Kelly to tag along and properly introduce Andrew to the wonderful world of Disney! 

    On the flight down. I was nervous about how Andrew would do given his new level of energy but he did awesome! It’s amazing what Cheerios and a few toys can do.  

        
     He had dinner at the Hoop De Doo Revue on Saturday. A Kleinfelter family tradition complete with BBQ and a dinner show. Andrew ate like a champ and was MESMERIZED.

    2 Years Already!?!?

    I’m not sure we could have packed more into two years if we tried! It’s been a crazy ride but I couldn’t think of a more wonderful person to hold hands through it all with! Happy anniversary my love and cheers to MANY MANY MANY more! ❤️

  • Helping Daddy Pack

    Helping Daddy Pack

    A new chapter begins for our little family! Today Andy starts his new job! After nearly 9 years at Tamale (which would become Advent), Andy has finally decided it was time for a new adventure. He is joining Backstop Solutions as their new Vice President of Solutions Consulting. While I couldn’t be happier for him, I know saying goodbye to the company he had poured himself into was bitter sweet. But I hope this next phase will bring him the challenge, growth and success he’s looking for!

    And of course Andrew had to get in on the action to help Andy pack for his first few days in Chicago.

    We went to Maryland this weekend to visit with Gigi and the Barba clan. So much has changed since these two last saw each other. December 2014 and barely 6 weeks old:7B1A2988

    The Traveling Phillips Clan

    Mommy’s in Chicago, Daddy’s in New York and Andrew’s in Maryland. It’s been 17 hours and I already miss this little guy to pieces. At least he’s having fun a ‘Grandma Camp 2015.’ Thanks Grandma and Grandpa James for watching our little guy while we’re out being working parents!
