This Happens a Lot Around Here

Grace loves to hold Sutton.  It usually starts off okay, but can quickly turn ugly.  Case in point...

Not a bad start
Everyone is happy
He's starting to squirm
Ella wants a turn
And, he's feeling claustrophobic
Ella tries to comfort him
Grace is saying, "Shhhh!  Don't cry little buddy."
When it's apparent that he's really not happy, she declares, "Mommy, I think you can have him now.  This is making me tired."  

Repeat this several times a day.  Poor little guy. They love him so much, but he needs to toughen up or he doesn't stand a chance :)

Madalyn was the same way with Weston. I purchased this neat foam blanket thing for her to use while holding him and it was great. I found it at a little boutique but it was well worth the big bucks I paid for it. I loved it. He even slept in it for a long time because I could wrap him tight.

It is on the Northern side of the Yucatan. It is about 30 minutes from the beach. Merida is considered a very romantic city. Unlike Cancun, there is not any evidence of American culture in their lifestyle or food. They do have Wal-Mart, Sam's Club, but it is full of what they like. Most definitely an interesting vacation and our driver/tour guide is the best. He drove us around 2 different days and we had a blast.
