1st ride on a train (very cute Thomas look a like train at the resort)
1st ride on a lazy river
1st ride on a golf cart
1st ride on an ambulance
That last one we could have done without! It took us to this lovely location:
The above is the San Javier Marina hospital. Yikes!
About half way through our trip Bentley's head and the marble trim in our hotel area had a very unfortunate encounter. Bentley and Jake were playing, and Bentley slipped on a pillow that was on the edge of the couch, which dropped him off the couch and against the floor trim on the floor. He split the back of his head open. Lots of blood. We called the hotel medic, who decided we should take him by ambulance to the local hospital. 6 stitches, a brain scan (because the cut looked deep), and some M&Ms later... we made it back to the hotel.
We were supposed to keep his head from getting too wet, so that put a BIT of a curtail on some of his water fun. We're just thankful it was "just" some stitches that were needed. It was scary, poor kid!
A few days after we made it back from Mexico Matt took him into the pediatrician to get the stitches removed. When Bentley came back from the Dr. he reported that the Dr. "pulled his head out". I love the visual that one brings to mind!

Oh no! What is with all the marble in that place? Sure, it's beautiful, but so slippery! We had a few incidents with the kids in Maui, where the bathroom was marble as well. The first night we were there, they both slipped and left them scared of baths the entire trip.
I'm glad to hear that he is ok and that the doctor "pulled his head out" with success!
The other photos look great...Viva has some seriously cute poses! I love the hands-on-the-hips pose at the door.
WOW! I'm so glad that everything went fine with the hospital. Maybe I'm paranoid but I'm pretty afraid of going to a foreign hospital, more than I should me!
