Maternity Leave
Well, my maternity leave is over!  Everyone at work has told me, "you're back already?"  (All except for my coworker Egidia who has helping to cover for me, for her I couldn't get back fast enough!) If it seems fast to them, it flew by to me! Unfortunately I can't intersperse text and images in this blog, so I'...

First Days
After Andrew was born, we spent three days in the hospital, with daily visits from Grandma, Grandpa, and Isaac.  It was a zoo when everyone was in the room!  Uncle Joe came by as well, and even held Andrew!  My friend and co-worker Egidia visited us with her husband. It's been three weeks already since Andrew was born!  I...

My last day at Meli...

Visit to Crococun Zoo
Last Saturday, we took Isaac to Crococun Zoo in Puerto Morelos, about 20 minutes down the road.  It's an interactive zoo where you get an hour-long guided tour through the jungle, and the chance to touch, feed, and interact with the animals they have there, which are mostly native to the Yucatan and southern Mexico.  Isaac got ready b...

My sister Theresa made this amazi...

Isaac's Second Birthday Party
  On June 22, we had a Minion-themed pool party to celebrate Isaac's second birthday.  (I know it's mid-August now, but better late than never, right?)  We had it at the Isla Dorada Club House, and invited friends and coworkers to come over and enjoy burgers and some pool time with us. We had a great turnout, and Isaac ...
