One year olds are a little challenging on planes. They're too young to wear headphones but old enough to find the plane exciting instead of sleep inducing. I'd bring a lot of snacks that double as entertainment (feeding one cheerio at a time can eat up 20 minutes). Paper to crumple is also a good one.
For the resort, what are the sleeping arrangements like? That's always my biggest stress travelling with my twins. Are you bringing a pack and play or does the resort offer them? Bringing a white noise machine? Is there a way to have your room near a family member so if he goes to bed at 7 pm you're not trapped being quiet alone in a dark room? If they're nearby you can bring a monitor and go hang out but if you're on your own floor you're trapped.
We also got floats like these for our twins. I'd think about that or a lifejacket. Babies like to try and paddle/squirm around and it's hard to just hold a wet slippery baby the whole time you're in the water.
Have fun! One is such a cute age he'll have a blast.
OMG!!!! That sounds scary. We debated swim lessons but have been successful with our community's pool and a hotel pool on vacation.
We were also gifted this, http://www.amazon.com/Swimways-Spring-Activity-Center-Canopy/dp/B000WQZD9U/ref=zg_bs_1272923011_1/181-1669147-7320012 and it has worked very well for us!
We are going to Dewey Beach in August for a BIG family vacation, let's see how she does with the Ocean!
