Funny Finley Musings!

We are still in Mexico, really enjoying our family time! Had to share some fun Finley stories so far on this trip.
First, we had been telling her lots about the trip...she is a girl who wants to know all the details! So we left out crazy early 4:30am on Wednesday morning and Fin couldn't sleep...so excited! Well, she asked us several times that morning: "when are we gonna see your ami?" Well, it wasn't til about the 3rd time that we finally understood what she meant...because we had told her, first we fly to Miami...Chris and I were laughing in amazement, of course My Ami, Your Ami!! HA!
Second, when we finally got into Cancun and trying to get off the plane...Finley was saying "Hola" to everyone (such a great little spanish speaker!) Well, the nice French couple behind us thought she was adorable and said, "Do you speak French too?" To which Finley replied without missing a beat, "French Fries!" So funny!
Third, we were ordering at the pool bar yesterday with lots of other vacationers around and after ordering our drinks, the bartender said jokingly to Cason, "and what for you little baby, tequila?" And Finley yelled back at him, "NO, HE WANTS BOOBIE MILK!"
Such a funny age, she certainly keeps us on our toes and laughing!

WOW!! This is where we will be tomorrow!


Ok, so my husband is amazing! He is REALLY good at his job and often times that carries over into being "Super Manager" for his family too...like when you get an email 3 days before you are supposed to leave on vacation saying that your resort has overbooked and you have to be moved to another resort! So he handled it all...they were giving us great options very fair swaps but we had booked a suite since we were travelling with the kids and wanted a seperate room so we could nap them and put them to bed earlier and we could still hang out and they weren't finding us another suite. SOOOO, Chris researched it and found this SWANKY resort that did have a suite available and shot it to him as an option, aaannnnddd THEY DID IT! It is a way more expensive place (not for us...they are paying the resort to move us there) And we have the Platinum Suite with this amazing balcony and our OWN PRIVATE POOL! WHAT?!?!? It is kinda hysterical to me and I am sure we are ruining Finley since this is our first major vaca with kids. Anyway, we are so excited...our family really needs the time away and we all need the rest. We all need to unplug from the craziness for a bit and just be together!
We will post more pics!
