This is my favorite picture of all of my Costa Rica shots. We took a 12 hour trip with the two babies. From our house in Ojochal, drove down to Sierpe river and were out on the river by 6 am... where I took this shot. We had a 2.5 hour boat ride down to Corcovado at the Sirena station and then several hours of hiking in the park. We saw 3 types of monkeys in one day and on the boat ride home, saw a momma and baby humpback whale in the water. The babies were awesome and we carried them the whole way in our slings. What a fabulous experience!

Here are some of the monkey shots and the crocodiles. There is a river that you have to cross if you are hiking through Corcovado that you must cross at low tide because of the sharks and crocodiles. Click for more on Corcovado.

We're Back from Costa Rica
We have returned home from 2.5 weeks of family vacation in Costa Rica. I'm in the midst of sorting through a ton of photos but thought I'd share a few
to get the ball rolling again. The monkeys were plentiful, the beaches beautiful and the birds were kind to show us their feathers and faces. We saw Toucans at our house, Macaws on the hikes and even the famous Resplendent Quetzal. More on those to come... Check out the video of Meghan holding the snake. It's a Boa Constrictor! Yes, I know it's sideways but I'm new at this whole video editing then and forgot and turned my camera sideways when filming.

When it's hot, you eat Ice Cream
It was so darn hot this weekend we did nothing but hang out at the pool and then eat ice cream. I keep telling myself I need to get ramped up for some hiking in this humidity (Costa Rica will be at least this hot if not more.) But, alas this has not happened beyond trekking around the air conditioned mall. What I really
wanted to try out was my new Ergo Carrier. The darn airlines charge so much now for luggage that I had to buy a new carrier for Nathan so I wouldn't bring my big baby backpack. I'll have more pics of that another day. Anyway, so we went to get ice cream tonight and both Meghan and Nathan thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Yes I know we let Nathan eat SORBET (non-dairy) at 7 months. He particularly enjoys the mango flavor.
