Playa del Carmen - Day 4 - February 8th

**Editor's note: I am really having some trouble remembering what we did each day beyond the basics - so really these are mostly just going to be photos! Turns out when you basically lay around for a week, the days blend together. However, I took far too many photos for one post so will continue with the daily posts**

As soon as Annie and Mia finished their breakfast on this day, we got ready to head to the beach again. It was kind of cloudy, which makes photos slightly easier. This is also the day that I realized that the pajamas I got on clearance for Annie because I needed some non-fleece footie pjs were actually Christmas themed :) Oops!

Another cute outfit - this one was a bday present from Molly because she loves seeing Annie's chunky thighs is leggings :)

Annie really loved getting sunscreen put on

Here are just a small selection of the 8 million photos I took on the beach that day - some of my faves from the entire trip! When I dumped my memory cards after this trip, I had taken over 2 THOUSAND PHOTOS - a new record, probably. Well, except for our Europe trip. But for a week in the same place? That's pretty impressive... I managed to edit them down to 1,184 total, so just wanted to make you aware that I actually did delete about 40% of the pics I took :)

Hm, still not a fan apparently

The waves were pretty fierce

This one pretty much sums up the trip - Mia walking all over and Annie just quietly sitting there, examining a grain of sand :)

Hopefully this works - love this series :)

We got back from the beach and just hung out for a bit before the girls went down for their nap. This was the day that was featured in Nate's time lapse video of naptime, so if you watched that, you get the idea :) Lounging, Ben cooking, and all of us eating.

Obviously needed a dip to get all that sand off

Lately, whenever Annie sees a pillow, she immediately lays down on it

I couldn't resist - a palm tree in one eye and Molly in the other :)

And Ben, checking twitter :)

After nap, we loaded the girls up and walked into town for some ice cream. I remember being very irritable during this trip into town for some reason. I'm sure it was a really big deal. Oh I remember now - I was dealing with trying to purchase feminine supplies for the first time in 21 months. I mean, really. What are the fricking chances?! Anyway, the gelato was good, but quite overpriced and the people there had no change for me so I had to sit there while they dug money out of the tip jar (which was locked) so yeah, kind of annoying overall.

Ben gets way too big of a kick out of taking Annie shopping for things like cigars...

Since we finally had a fixed stove, we made some spaghetti for dinner. The girls loved it. It was another low key night of sitting on the patio listening to the rain while enjoying some beverages and listening to music.
