Family Photo Shoot

I took some pictures on Saturday for the cutest family!  More here. 

Expecting

We are so excited to add a little one to our family!  Mike is the poster boy for elation and I vacillate between joy and nerves pretty regularly.  I have felt generally healthy, although I am glad school is over and I don't have to get up quite so early and manage a queasy stomach in front of a class of students.  I'm sure they all thought I was acting a bit odd, hovering by the trash can and sitting at any possible moment (not to mention the split personality that, even though I try to deny it, seems to have emerged).  We expect the little one some time in early January.  

Cancun

We had a fabulous time in Cancun.  I love vacationing with Mike and relaxing on the beach for a whole week was perfect.

Visiting Mayan ruins at Tulum

Tulum was probably my favorite - history and natural beauty collide

Hanging out in Playa del Carmen

We ate a lot of delicious Mexican food! 

Then, after days in the sun, we got to come back to a beautiful hotel room...

With our own private soaking pool on the deck. 

Some days were spent simply reading and we moved only when we needed to find a new spot at a new pool - the complex had at least 8 pools...

With beds! 

And alas, our faces are peeling and we are soaking in aloe vera, but we had such a great vacation.
