Sorry this post is a little late.  Things have been pretty crazy around here.

In the middle of February, we went to Ixtapa, Mexico.  The trip was absolutely amazing and Paisley was very well behaved :)

We left Saturday morning and headed to St Louis to spend the day there before flying out very early Sunday morning.  Our first stop was the Magic House.  Paisley enjoyed herself after she came out of her shell a bit.


She loved the chalk and chalk board - maybe we have a teacher on our hands.


And surprisingly this is her only reaction to the 4 story high slide that she slid down.  She was definitely too little for this slide but she insisted on doing it.


She really liked the bubble room.  Daddy made a giant bubble all around her body :)


And the phone room.  A girl after her mom's heart :)


And what's better than one phone.....two phones :)


We spent the rest of Saturday hanging around the hotel - swimming and eating pizza.

We got up at 3am and headed to the airport at 4 am.  Our flight left at 6 am. 

Paisley is enjoying her donut and smoothie very early in the morning.  She still almost looks asleep.  Poor thing.


Getting ready to take off...


Mommy and Paisley.  (Yes, Mommy looks like a giant!)


We had a lay over in Houston and my phone was her source of entertainment.


We made it to Mexico!!! Looking cool in my shades and hat!


Silly faces...


Grandma Sandy and Paisley.


Adam and I.


Our condo had a small playground.  Paisley fell in love with the slide and swings.


She did not fall in love with the sand on her hands and feet.  She continued to brush it off :)


A common place for Paisley when we were walking.  Paisley loves her daddy!


What a view!


We had a hot tub on our balcony.  Paisley had fun playing in her hot tub swimming pool!


Bill and Adam decided to go golfing one day.  My mom, Paisley, and myself decided to join them for a few holes.  Alligators were all over the golf course - kinda scary.


Paisley was practicing her somersaults while on the golf course.


And she loved throwing the ball and chasing it.


How cute is this!  Adam is trying to get Paisley to move so he can putt.  Paisley did not understand :)


And the standard Paisley strutting her way across the green.


We ended up staying the entire 18 holes.  Paisley had a blast golfing :)


Oh and check out the beer cart or old Nissan truck with giant coolers in the back...haha!


On our last full day, we went to Ixtapa Island for some peace and quiet.  Paisley loved playing in the sand.


She even convinced Papa Bill and Daddy to go build a sand castle.


One of my favorite pictures from the whole vacation :)


Enjoying the ocean with Daddy!


We planned on leaving when it was time for nap, but Paisley insisted that she could take a nap in a beach chair.  She had enough shade on her that she kept cool and slept for 2 hours.

Adam and I had a little date night to celebrate our anniversary the night before we left.


Paisley stayed with Grandma and Papa while Adam and I were at dinner.  They enjoyed walking around smelling flowers and watching the sunset.


Good Bye Ixtapa.  See you soon!

What a wonderful vacation!

We have had some house projects going in anticipation of our new arrival  in May :)  One of the last things that we had to do was Miss Paisley's room.  She consistently requested pink walls so here they are. 

Daddy and Paisley painting.


Paisley's finished project before daddy could really start in!


And the pink wall is done and the bright pink bedding.  The tiny thing on the HUGE bed was just Paisley taking a nap.  She loves her new room.  We still have lots more to do though.


More pictures to follow of the completed room!
