I can't remember the last time C and I took a real vacation -- the type where you lounge around and do nothing for a week. Not the type of vacation where you have family obligations or are trekking around siteseeing different sites but the lazy type. This summer, we decided we'd take advantage of auntie Y's villa in Cabo and do a full-week of absolutely nothing -- and absolutely nothing it was with T. Our daily schedule consisted of eating, sleeping and hanging out by the pool with T (apologies in advance if all the pics you see are only by the pool - that's the only place we were at).
Cabo was such a treat -- not only because it was a short flight from SF but also because C and I had a chance to spend 24-7 with T. And T was such an incredibly happy little toddler. His new words that week were "happy", "awesome!", "opopos" (the delish "totopo" branded nacho chips they had there), "fan" (the first time he ever saw a fan), "wet", "cold". I don't think I have ever taken as many pics of him laughing with his mouth wide open!
As for swimming, it took T a while to get used to the pool. In SF, he doesn't get much of a chance to swim so 7 days in the pool was a new thing for him - which took a bit of getting used to. Luckily, T didn't get sick during the vacation (we were scared he would get his fevers again) and adjusting back, once we were home, wasn't too bad. First night was terrible but thereafter, he's been sleeping through the night alone in his bed (yipee!)
We have a ton more pics coming but here is a looong sample of our first few days in paradise...

Tristie, that's called a "fan"
