Mexico likes us...

So, after two days of swimming in the rain and walking around under an umbrella, we woke up to sunshine. I'm not sure what her reasoning was but Em'ry thought that since the sun was shining we were suppose to hang out in the pool instead of on the beach. Either way, I got a tan ;)


Those of you that have been to Mexico know that the sun is a little different down there. I mean, it's hot in Houston, but in Mexico you can't get enough to drink. So, while I was able to keep the frozen drinks "mommy juice" last year, Em'ry wasn't buying it this time and she had her fair share of fresca de fresas and pina coladas.

With the sun, appeared all kinds of creatures. Every where we went Em'ry would say, "I'm looking for critters!"

We did make it back to the beach eventually and it was even more fabulous than I could have imagined. Em'ry didn't complain once! The sand was so soft and never got hot. The water was crystal clear and Em'ry was happy to wade and let the waves knock her down or sit in her float for hours at a time and ride the waves while the Angel Fish swarmed, yes swarmed, our legs.


The freshest fruit we've ever had!


I know my mom probably isn't happy about this picture but I promise there was no danger!

I am getting better about the sunscreen. I'm not use to applying so often but we did pretty good this trip and I'm the only one that got burnt! Well, except for the part in Em'ry's hair :-/ I caught it early so it wasn't too terribly bad and she was content to wear a hat most of the time.
Have I mentioned that it Em'ry is going through a selectively independent stage lately? Meaning, she is still a baby when it comes to walking but she is a big kid when she thinks something is cool...
