It's a rough life, but someone has to live it.
We've been to Acapulco as a family before. It was actually the first time we had to get a passport for The May Queen. This is what she looked like when we were there the first time:
16 months old. (note the ever present sippy cup. I noticed in over half the pictures we have of her there the sippy cup is in hand or nearby) Now she is nearly 6. Yikes.
She was always a little fish, though. Check out this picture I got of her at the awesome pool at the resort:
That underwater camera was worth its weight in gold, no?
Oh, I miss those chubby little arms. Anyhow...
The older girls at the pool were fascinated by her, and everyone seemed to know her name. "Hola, May Queen!" they would call, waving as we went by. I cannot count the number of times we were asked if we bleached her hair. Um... no.
So, we're off again! For the next week I will be swimming in the pool and the ocean, playing Bridge with the in-laws (and losing... I'm pretty bad at Bridge), and having fun in the sun!
Then we come home, The May Queen starts school 5 days later, and I'll get MY vacation!

That underwater photo is the coolest! Have a great time and post lots of photos when you're back!
You are SO gonna need that vacation, aren't you? LOVE that shot!
Do you live in Louisiana? If so where? How many vacations do you guys get every year??? QUITE UNFAIR!
that underwater shot rules!
Acapulco! I'm jealous.
And that is a really cool underwater picture.
MQ's hair really is incredibly striking. So, at one level, I guess I understand the constant questions. It's just hard to imagine anyone bleaching a little girl's hair. (though I'm sure there are people who do)
Have an excellent time!
Hope you are enjoying Meh-hee-ko. I need a vacation from my vacation.
That picture is positively priceless. I am totally jealous of your vacation. I hope you have a great time!
I love that underwater shot. WOW!
You are having entirely too much fun.
Don't stop. :)
Yes, that underwater photo is beautiful! Truly. Was it expensive, I wonder. Not that I'd have much opportunity to use one anyway. Way up here under the ice half the year, maybe.
Have fun in Mexico!
Okay I am officially jealous. Don't you guys ever have to work? Have fun Ms Maypole....
I'm so jealous of your travels I could just spit. But I wont, 'cause that's yucky. Instead I'll just wish you a good time, and stew in jealousy until you return.
You BRAT.
Have fun, even if you are incredibly spoiled.
:)
Oh, and those pics of May Queen? Delicious.
I hope there are some (controlled) shark sightings on your beach vacation!
Cheers!
mexico!?!?! that is SO awesome. hope you are having a blast!
