More from the beach!

Labor Day weekend we figured was a good time to head out to the beach. Just us and about 10,000 of our closest friends!


Given all the people we still managed to find a nice spot in the sand.


William seemed more than a little skeptical about the sand.


And the water was no where near as warm as in his tub.


He also thought it was a little irresponsible of us to bring him to the beach given that he had never had any swim lessons.


He seemed to prefer being able to look down upon the beach.


We did manage to get his toes into the sand. Given the way he curls them up, he's probably still got some grains between those toes right now!


He seemed to prefer just hanging out on the blanket in the shade of our umbrella-ella-ella-a-a-a. 


Good thing we got him out when we did, otherwise he never would have fit into his swimming outfit. As it is, we had to rip the collar just to fit his big head through!

I love Captain Adorable's big old head!!!

Your smiles are so great to see! Neat to see the beach...and baby toes!

Love,
Marmee

(P.S. - I have a Flickr contact that is a new grandparent. His wife came up with their new grandparent names: She's Lolly and he's Pop. Lollipop. Cute, huh?)

Love the way you captured William's reactions, and toes in the sand. Those creases and curly toes are hard to get clean. How nice that the beach is so close, and not so hot, like Texas!

Diane - I love the Lollipop idea!
