Mason and I had said if we sold our house quickly, and by ourselves, then we'd use part of the money we saved by not involving a realtor to go on vacation! Which was a success..praise God!!!
So a few weeks ago we booked a vacation for the end of January...kind of spur the moment knowing it was 'now or never' since our foster care/adoption certification would be complete by February we wanted to be able to be grounded here for quite awhile. Therefore we leave next Tuesday for Cancun! Very excited and blessed to get to have 6 days to spend together and on the beach nonetheless:)
I know Breyton is going to enjoy the ocean so much and can't wait to see how much fun he has! We took him down to the same area when he was 15 months old and he loved every second...but that age was harder to travel with bc you have naptimes, diapers, sippy cups, etc to keep up with. I think 3.5 yrs old is gonna be a great age to take him and will be a priceless memory....as this may be our last trip as a family of 3 ever!
It worked out rather randomly that a dear friend could make the trip with us and volunteered to help be a 'nanny' of sorts:) So we will get the best of both worlds! Breyton gets to be there with us, but Mason and I can have couples time on occasion and enjoy our favorite part of being down there--snorkeling adventures!
This trip has came upon us so quickly..especially since we were blessed to find out about our first foster placement ahead of time and have been lucky to be keeping him on and off to transition. It has kept us much busier! We have already grown attached to sweet baby 'D' , so I already know I'm going to miss him a ton those 6 days!!! Makes me a little sad. However after we get back we will only have 1 more class left before he will officially be with us. Can't wait!!!
Here's a few pics from our first family vacation...my baby has grown up so much since then:(
