Pictures from Mexico

Enjoy some pictures of our lovely trip to Isla Mujeres Meheeco. (And just to clarify, I didn't spell it wrong Alicia, I am writing it how it sounds)

On the ferry from Cancun.

Some entertainment during dinner.

There were LOTS of dogs on the island, we didn't know if they were strays or not, but they seemed like regulars at all of the restaurants. We weren't sure if we should worry about that, you know hygiene and all.

The view from our room. We were hanging over the ocean....it was breathtaking each morning.

Of course we rented a scooter, it was lovely. 'Cept for the sunburned calves...youch!

We decided that this was called a sea cockroach.

After one day in the sun we were pretty red! I wish I had taken one of day two...that was painful!

Gorgeous location for breakfast. This is the southernmost tip of the island with nothing but sea all around.

Another view from breakfast.

Our hotel owned this little mini island and you had to cross a rickety bridge to get there. But that didn't stop anyone, cars, trucks. It was definitely sketchy, but gave us some excitement each day :)

There were scooters everywhere! I wish I had taken more pictures of the people riding them. Infants and children hung precariously over the sides bigger toddlers squished between their chubby parents.

More to come!!

Correction

After reading the blog today Elyse informed me that it wasn't Levi who had taken the pictures, but herself. She had put the timer on. Cute but worrisome....the girl loves the limelight.

Takeover

The camera suffered a hostile takeover this week and this is what I found. All taken by Levi.

Snow day!!

We had a snow day on our last big storm. We made the backyard into a sledding hill and the kids had a blast!

They actually got going pretty fast!

Again, playing in our backyard/alleyway is white trash but fun! Note to self, buy snow boots for next winter. My toes were frozen solid in my rain boots.

Firefighters museum

We have a car! We have joined the ranks of the elite of NYC. We love it so much, this was our first outing out of the city. We went a little crazy and drove waaay upstate to the Firefighters museum. We got lost and it took us about 3 hours to get there but it was so nice to get out of the city and the kiddies had fun.

Finally there!

It took so long to get here, this place better be good!

This was a really cool place, they had over 100 different fire trucks and carts from the past 200 plus years.

They played this game for as long as we could stand it but the place was empty so it was all good. (run the "balls"/water to the burning house)

They also learned how to dial 911 and some great fire safety tips from some awesome cartoon trucks and hoses. Anyway, definitely far for this museum but it was so nice to have the freedom to go wherever we wanted!

So cute!

Thanks for the heads up Jessie, I fixed it :)

I found this video tonight of when we told Elyse we were pregnant with Levi. For nine months we thought it was a girl, we had quite the shock when he came out! Excuse the squishy belly scenes and give a girl a break.

Mexico!

Sadly we are back from our lovely vacation to Meheco. It was lovely. We went to a small island off of Cancun called Isla Mujeres. It was so quaint and perfect. We didn't do much other than sit around on the beach and eat. Its so sad to be back to reality.

This was what our evenings consisted of....watching the gorgeous sunsets. And just as a side note, for as small as the island was there were at least 50 pregnant women, tourists and locals alike. No joke. Think the universe is trying tell me something?

Alright alright, I get the message.....sheesh.

So we've decided to join the club. 15 weeks and counting down the days til August!
