We are here....day #2!

Ok...so day #1 did not turn out like we had hoped...and day #2 didn't start off so great....but as the day is winding to an end...there is a sense of calmness! Maybe cause Lyza is in bed! I totally forgot what it was like to tote a toddler around on vacation....I guess when we were in Guatemala it was easy because she was not mobile.....well, now she is in full force and giving me a run for my money! Whew!!!

We headed to the beach today and it was very warm and sunny! Madisyn found a ton of great seashells and Lyza had fun running from the waves! She also had fun throwing sand in the air...and if you know her hair type you know this is NOT a good thing! We only spent about 2 hrs at the beach...which was plenty enough time to do what we intended to do!

After heading "home" Chris and Maddy went to the store for groceries....Lyza down for a nice 3 hr nap and some peace and quiet for mama'! After Lyza woke up we went to walmart for a "kiddie" pool and it has been the best four dollars we have spent!! She has had a ton of fun in it and was super excited when sissy joined her! Madisyn and Chris hopped in the bay and found some "sea creatures" and made a little aquarium...pretty cool! It is kinda neat to see the critters slithering around in there!

The breeze is just perfect out on the porch and making for an enjoyable, relaxing evening! Tomorrow we are headed to Busch Gardens and hope to make a full 1/2 day of it! Te he he!! We are not sure how long Lyza will last...or if she will nap in the stroller but we are hoping for the best!

XoXo to all!
