Cruise: Day Two Cozumel!



Tuesday morning we were docked in Cozumel, Mexico!  The weather was a bit cloudy, but warm.  We were so excited for the day ahead!



When we got off the ship, we walked to the bike rental place that was our excursion.


There was a bit of mixup with the Becerras excursion reservation, and they didn't end up having enough electric bikes for us all.  So Kelsey and Jeremy went on a tandem bike together.  I felt bad that they weren't able to ride on the motorized ones.  They were so much fun!  I seriously want to get one of them now haha






Our tour guide took us around Cozumel and we stopped at certain places to learn about the area.

This little nature area had crocodiles and piranhas- no thank you haha









Then we stopped for a little history lesson.










Next up was snorkeling!



It always takes me a few minutes to get used to the mouth breathing, but once I got used to it, it was so fun and amazing.


There really is nothing like the warm, aqua water!!





One thing I wanted to do at each stop on our cruise was get a little bit of sand to take home.  I have some summer/beachy seasonal decorations I put up after my 4th of July ones come down and I thought it would be fun to display the sand of different beaches we go to. I'll have to remember to take some Monterey sand when we go next month :) 
After snorkeling, we had lunch.  It was pretty tasty, but obviously a tourist place, because the prices were so high!



We didn't stop at all on our ride back to the bike rental place.  It was fun to just cruise along the road!
Our tour guide was super nice, and he learned a new word "tandem"  He didn't know that word before when Kesley and Jeremy took that bike (I guess they never rent that one out haha).  In Mexico though there is an ice cream sandwich called tandem, so when we got back he gave one to Kesley and Jeremey haha 



It's always fun to see your ship from a distance.  That thing is huge!


After we got back, we showered and got ready for dinner.

Lots of desserts like always haha

This was our first time eating dinner with Dennis and Pat.  It was fun to see how similar the Nyholm brothers look!


After dinner, we took a walk around the ship.

And we were marveling at how the high up and the view that the high divers had during our first night's show!





Erik's parents had a balcony and we enjoyed the view there as well.  It was a great day in Mexico

One Weekend, Three Living Arraignments

So I don't have too much time to blog, but thought I would do a quick update of our moving weekend.  First of all I wanted to post this pic of Wyatt trying to drink the rain that came last week.  It was the first time it's really rained here since we came to Arizona, and it was so weird.  Hot, muggy, rain.  All packed up and ready to go.  Friday was our last night in the apt (hallelujah!) One last goodbye To avoid having to pay into the new month, Saturday and Sunday night we stayed in a hotel (it was a lot cheaper surprisingly).  Wyatt was having lots of fun jumping on the bed. So Monday morning, as I was showering, I felt like the conditioner was making my hair feel really weird.  Well, that's because I dumped a bottle of lotion on my hair . . . FYI, that doesn't work well. Monday we finally moved in!  I took these pictures after a full day of unpacking and cleaning if you can believe it.  They look really bad, but they give you a tas...

OK, so I guess the consensus of the man giving me the flowers is creepy to everyone.  I think it's one of those times you had to have been there, because he really didn't seem creepy.  In any event the flowers still look pretty in the kitchen :) Wyatt just cracks me up these days.  I think this is just the funnest age when their personality really shows its true colors.  While we were playing in the backyard I tried to get a video of him using his "worker man voice"  It is the most hilarious thing.  He loves to do things to get me (and especially Erik) to laugh. While I was taking pictures of the boys, I decided I might as well get a shot of the baby tucked away (well not so tucked apparently) at 21 weeks.  I really am feeling so good these days, as long as I get some sleep.  Now that we are back on a normal schedule that's a lot easier to do! Jackson has reached to a new stage as well of keeping himself entertained (without the TV)...

Anna loves being by the fire.  It's actually the only time she doesn't fuss if she's set down.  This girl likes to be held! Our little Sumo wrestler A little dream smile :) We finally found some good bunk beds on Craig's List.  Jackson LOVES sleeping on the top.  I'm still keeping Wyatt in his crib, because he does so well in it.  I see no point in rocking the boat when I have a newborn to give me sleep troubles already.  We'll put Wyatt in bunk bed sometime this summer. Sweet girl.  This is one of my favorite outfits that I ordered for her, because it has my favorite color: yellow :) Jackson always wants to hold her.  Last night we had this sweet conversation: Jackson: "Mom, when are you going to wake up tomorrow morning?" (I've been able to sleep in while my parents have been here) Me: "I don't know Jackson it depends on how much Anna gets up during the night." Jackson: "Oh, I hope she doesn't need to nurse tonight...
