Beach Bums



We spent last Tuesday night through Sunday in Corolla, enjoying Colin's week off from work. The Gallahans joined us for the first half of our time there, and the Sewards came for the weekend. We ate a ton, went for walks, swam some in the ocean, and relaxed as much as parents of an active 9 month old can relax. One night Colin & I actually grabbed some Mexican and played mini-golf--all by ourselves! That's always a treat. Colin took advantage of Will's early risings to catch the sunrise on the beach one morning...

Will had a great time--the kid has NO fear and kept crawling straight into the ocean, over and over again. He laughed at the sight of particularly large waves. Here he's taking a break from such daredevil antics & is content playing with the ocean kayak strap. He's a little over 22 lbs & almost 29 inches, and he just got his 5th tooth. Our little guy is getting to be not so little...

We're pet-sitting for our friends Annie & Neal over the next several days, and I'm hoping that'll help entertain Will. After days of non-stop attention, the boy needs someone else besides mommy to give him some attention and listen to his shrieks.

I wish we had more pictures to share, but I tend to get lazy with my photography while away. Off to Kroger we now go... Let's hope Will can stay in the cart this time!

Naked at the beach always makes for a great time.
