Mexico

Mexico We just got back from a family trip to Mexico. My parents go every year and were kind enough to take us with them this year. So, we packed everyone up and got on the plane for a 4 hour ride. Anyone that has a 3 (almost 4) year old will be able to sympathize with us. Jordyn was so excited that it was her first time on a plane, so she was full of questions and very hyper. We landed in Mexico about 1:30 and headed to the resort. That first night, Alex woke up with an ear that was hurting really bad. We figured he had an ear infection, so we went to the pharmacy and bought some antibiotics. By Monday he was feeling better and able to have some fun. Sunday was Jordyn's 4th Birthday, so it was special that she could spend it in Mexico. Each day the kids went to the Kids Club that was offered at the resort. They both had a lot of fun playing with other kids. While they were at the Kids Club, Shawn and I were able to lay on the beach with a drink and read or do whatever we wanted. It was nice to be able to just relax and we both were able to read several books while we were there. So, Friday night comes and we are getting ready to leave the next day. That night, about 1:30 AM, Alex woke up throwing up. Every hour, him and I were in the bathroom. Poor guy! Gpa made yet another trip to the pharmacy to get more meds. By the time we went to the airport, he was feeling a little better, but very tired. We got him drugged up for the flight home and he was able to sleep a lot of the time. We landed Saturday night at 7PM, got through Customs with all our baggage by 7:30. That was really good timing! So, we are all back and healthy and back to the grind. I will add some pictures when I get them off the camera.

Sounds like a typical vacation with kids! Glad everyone is feeling well now. And belated happy birthday, Jordyn.
