Beach Time!

Last week we were hosting Leigh and Brooks and Everett and decided as the weather was pretty warm to expose the little guy to his first beach experience. Above is his first walk through the sand and it was pretty fun for all of us.

Above he is explaining that he is almost three feet tall ... more to come, eh. And below his first real touch of beach sand. It was pretty neat to watch him explore the stuff and watch him thinking, "You guys are all watching me play with dirt ... Mom won't let me do that at home!"

As he waded further in to the water which was pretty cold he had some initial reservations about the waves and texture of the sand ... but with a little reassurance from Mom he would never be afraid of the water again.

Later as he got his suit on the three of them posed as Ev quickly learned to shovel the stuff into his new bucket ... a really quick learner.

Actually the fun part was watching him watch the other kids his size and what they were doing in the water and on the beach ... all sinking into his expanding experience reservoir.
