The Beach!!!!

This afternoon we went to the beach for the first time this summer. Obviously last year he was too little to enjoy it, but this year he went crazy. I seriously imagined we would lug all our stuff there, set up, and he would freak out and hate it and we would have to leave. This was not the case, luckily. He played for a long while just sitting in the sand. I am pretty sure he just didn't know he could move around. And he didn't even try to eat the sand. After a while he was up and moving. The water was FREEZING but that didn't stop him. He sat and splashed, walked around, and got knocked down multiple times. But he still loved it! Thank goodness because my favorite place on earth is at the beach. Just to prepare you, there will be a million pictures in this post, there were too many good ones to choose from.

Let the fun begin!

"This sand is pretty cool."


"OOOhhhhhh sand is fun!"


Everytime one of us stood up he quickly went to sit in our chairs. Silly boy!

Playing in his daddy-made pool.




Apparently standing on the chair is really fun.

Burying his legs in the sand.

Jim dug a big hole and we plopped him in and quick covered him up. I thought he would totally freak out but instead he laughed and laughed. This picture was before we covered him up with sand.


This is after we covered him and he still loved it.


My beautiful boy!



He stood still so long that his feet kept getting stuck.


Weeeeeee..........


Rubbing sand all over Mommy. He had to do it to me because Jim refused to let sand touch him. He is such a nancy.

His foot was stuck in the sand.

Brrr..... his lips are blue here but he wouldn't get out.

"See ya Mom!"


And lastly, a video montage of his fun at the beach.
