Adventurous Acostas and the Jet-setter Jilly

Next stop for jet-setter Jilly and the Adventurous Acostas was northern Virginia to see Julian's family.  Along with Julian's parents and sister, we were also lucky to be joined by Jilly's great-grandmothers, who flew all the way from Puerto Rico to meet our baby girl!
All eyes on Jilly...even Pookie, the dog, can't keep her eyes off Jilly!

All the travel finally took it's toll on Jillian and she slept a lot while we were in Virginia.

We decided to get really adventurous and we all went to our nation's Capitol, Washington, D.C. We even rode the metro system to get there, so here is a picture of jet-setter Jilly on her first subway ride.
And here we are in front of the Washington Memorial.  The weather was absolutely beautiful all day, which made it pleasant for all the walking around we did.
We went to the Holocaust Museum, walked around the monument mall, and then went to the Smithsonian Natural History museum, which Julian loved!

Hey Daddy, I've seen an elephant before but not one with those big tusks!

Daddy, look how little I am compared to this T-Rex!

We had so much fun in Virginia and we are so sad that our vacation had to end!  Oh well, I guess it's back to the real world, but at least we have our new house to look forward to!!!  For now, jet-setter Jilly has been on 14 planes and 4 trips total.  I think we are ready for this baby to settle down for awhile...
