Viva Mexico!

OK, so I know this is Finley's blog, but I'm guessing the people who care to check about Finley's life are probably also interested in hearing about Cam's and my vacation to Aculpoco. We had a wonderful time with my parents and sister, Megan, and her boyfriend, Phil (aka Felipe). Every day was spent poolside, which also happened to be oceanside. We took naps, read books, played football on the beach, had water competitions, played water volleyball, practiced the Dirty Dancing lift, collected shells, watched the dolphins surf the waves, drank numerous Coronas, daiquiris, margaritas, and Dirty Bananas, and made friends with our server, Pilar. The boys rented boogie boards a couple of times, although neither Felipe or Cam were all that lucky at catching any waves. The guys also golfed twice, so on one of those occasions, we girls got massages and relaxed in the spa. We went to town two nights and ate in beautiful restaurants overlooking the hills of the city. Since we kept ourselves so busy during the day, we all managed to end up in bed asleep before midnight every night! Although we had tons of fun, both Cam and I were very ready and excited to see our little Finners when we got back. She seemed so much bigger when we saw her and she stands all by herself now with no wobbles for extended periods of time. She dances without holding onto her favorite Leapfrog Music Maker, and Sandra and Cam both claim to have seen her take a couple of steps! She must have had lots of fun with Grandma and Grandpa and the rest of the family because she has been treating us to a little bit of an adjustment period - which means we can tell she was VERY spoiled for the week we were gone :) Despite her extra need for attention, I'm proud to say I still managed to decorate the house for Christmas today! I am my mother's daughter :)
