Caymans and Mason Walking EVERYWHERE!!

The past week Marcus and I took a little vacation to the Cayman Islands. It was very relaxing, beautiful, but we missed our lil guy so much!! The weather was AWESOME the whole time we were there and the water was AMAZING!! While we were there we took a couple of excursions. We rode waverunners for 2 hours and went snorkeling at two different spots along seven mile beach. I have not had those pics developed from the water camera so I will have none of those to post. Then for our second excursion we took a catamaran boat out to stingray city sandbar where we fed and swam with the HUGE stingrays. I was amazed at how BIG they were. The first day at the beach at our hotel a stingray swam up to us, but it was not near as big as the ones at the sandbar!!! That was pretty amazing....the guides showed us their stingers....they did not look as bad as they are :) We also fed the Tarpons at the Wharf restaurant. Here are a few pics of our vacation! ****Did I mention....We came home a day early because we missed our lil guy so much!!!




The view from our hotel room......LOOK AT THAT AMAZING WATER!!

Stand out side our hotel room on the beach....we just opened our door and we were right on the beach!! The room was GREAT!
Our lil friend (crab) we met while sitting on our porch.

Well after many international phone calls we decided to hop on a plane and come home a day earlier. It was all worth it to see my lil guy. I missed him soooo very much. I held him and kissed him all day. As I posted earlier....Mason took his first steps on Saturday the day before Father's day and now there is NO stopping him....he is walking EVERYWHERE!!! I will for sure loose the extra LB's i gained on the vacation :) chasing Mason around. Here are a few pictures of him walking. I love this boy more and more each day.....what an amazing gift I have been given, Mason, my precious son!

Mason playing with bubbles...you can hardly see them :)
"I am coming for you daddy!"
"Ok mom....are you ready cuz here I come!"
"Daddy and I will fight over this for many years to come!"
One more time....I'm a comin'
YEAH!!!! Mason! What a big boy walking :)

Wow, the beach looked beautiful. Mason is so big! I can't believe he is walking and how much he has changed since spring break. You'll definitely be shedding pounds in the months to come chasing your little guy.
