Cancun, Mexico- International Baby of Mystery, Part 1

Last week was a week full of firsts for Graham....and none of them were his first Thanksgiving. Fact is we really didn't really celebrate Thanksgiving. Instead we celebrated with Shannon's sister's wedding in Mexico. Kerry Pincock and Ben King decided to get married in Cancun and we all spent a week basking in the Mexican sun.

Here is Graham and Shannon on Graham's first flight. He was amazing. He ate during take off and landing so there were no pressurization issues. The rest of the time he pretty much slept.


We went to an all-inclusive resort just over an hour outside of Cancun. It was called the Grand Sirenis and it was fantastic! Highly recommended. Here is Graham dipping his toes at the beach at the resort....

...and in the pool.


Another first for Graham was his first taste of something other than boobies or formula. First official real food: BANANA
Here is a video of the experience!



Jumping death spiders and flying piranhas? That's not enough to keep Graham from his first trek through the jungle!



Graham is such the explorer...not being content in the confines of our resort he took us out to hang out at some ancient Mayan ruins...his first ancient Mayan ruins expedition!

More pics and videos to follow!

Happy Birthday Grandpa Pincock!

Graham Talking!

These were just taken a few moments ago....we thought they were so cute we wanted to post them right away!

Marathon and the Thompsons and Harringtons

Two weeks ago we went up to Washington, D.C. for the Marine Corps Marathon. I was running it with Dave Harrington so we got to meet up with the Harrington family and meet Graham Harrington. Graham H. was born four days after Graham Pardo. While with the Harringtons we refer to them as G1 (G. Pardo) and G2 (G. Harrington).

While there we also got to meet up with the Thompsons, my sponsor family from the Naval Academy. This was the first time getting to meet their "grandson".

Here is G1 playing with his tongue. He loves rolling it around in his mouth and then sticking his fingers in there.



Here is Rene with G1. Graham is wearing one of my favorite shirts of his.

After some convincing we were able to get Caroline to hold her cousin.

Here are Lynn and Daniel...Graham seems fascinated by Daniel.

Neither G1 (right) or G2 (left) seem very happy about their car seats.

Here are our race fans! Daniel getting ready to support Dave.

Dave and I in our super sweet race outfits!

I have more pics at home and will try to post later tonight.

Pre-Halloween Phot Shoot

For his first Halloween, Graham couldn't decide what he wanted to be a Pee-in-the-Pod or a Teddy Bear (Teddy Graham). To help decide we had a pre-Halloween photo shoot. Enjoy!
