His First trip to the Beach!

Good grief. I tried to narrow the photos down, but am having a really hard time picking out the 'best'. So . . . you're getting a slew of photos from our vacation - day one.

We left the house at 10:00 pm last night headed to Seaside Florida. We got to our cottage at about 5:30 am this morning. He slept the ENTIRE way without a peep. The day has been long, but really fun. Serif did great at the beach and got use to the sand and ocean very quickly. He had a ball in his float and enjoyed eating his snacks under the umbrella too. We went out twice today, never made it to the pool. We've had 2 short naps and are ready for a good nights sleep tonight.


Oh, and around the house today he's been a spaz. He's in to absolutely everything!!! I've tried to 'baby-proof' the best as possible but we're still after him constantly. At least he's relaxed more at the beach (for day one anyways). Here's a shot of him climbing the stairs. He made it all the way up them, 17 of them to be exact.
