My Mom and I took Annaliese and Sydney to Mexico last week. We went to a small resort just south of Cancun and north of Playa del Carmen. We met friends of ours from Canada there, and had a really big week full of sun, swimming and not a lot of sleep. Let's call it a trip not a vacation. We played musical beds at night, and missed Daddy a ton.
We were trying to keep the wind off of Annaliese's head. Which style do you think she should go with?
Everyone was in the pool. It was incredibly warm and humid. Annaliese did great and didn't cry the whole trip. The only exception was on the plane ride home when Syd bit her foot and left a mark on the top and bottom. I don't know what was sadder, the bite mark on my baby, or the unprompted apology that Syd gave to Liese when she realized what she had done 45 mins earlier. "I'm sorry Baby Liese" - kiss kiss kiss.
Every morning we could order Tea, Coffee, Juice and pastries. The staff leave it in a little cubby in your room, so when you're ready to enjoy a little wake me up, you can open the door and it's waiting for you. Syd's favorite thing was pouring the tea, dunking the tea bag, spreading the butter and jelly and stirring the sugar. Did she consume any of it? No, not much, but she got really good at pouring and spreading.
Just giggling and smiling, that's all she did all week. I'm really not exaggerating.
Syd was swimming under water in just a few days. She loved it and was so proud of herself. Our friend Chris did such a great job helping her learning how to do it all.
It was so hot the whole time that Annaliese fell asleep in a lot of different places outside. This one was taken on a couch at the restaurant's outdoor eating area under my Mom's watch.
We were either sleeping, swimming or looking for lizards with the big girl. Here's a quick moment of eating.
One night when I was actually sitting at the table during dinner.
Thanks for browsing. Thanks for all your help Mom, Margaret and Chris.
