Beach Trip Part 3

the third and final installment of our trip to the beach.

this week, cody had to go back to work, so mae and i were left to our own devices.  luckily we had plenty of people who were willing to help!  and of course, this was also the week that mae got another tooth, so we had a couple of fussy days.  but, other than that she was awesome.

there were plenty of walks this week.

there was a great tide pool this week, and mae had a blast playing in it.

her toy of choice this week was my aunt's hairbrush.  she would walk a few steps with it, bend down and brush the sand.

more walks

lunch on the beach

 while there, mae developed a love for a few different foods.  pb sandwiches, goldfish, cheez-its, yogurt melts, and squeeze fruit.  this stuff is awesome.  so easy, with little mess.  she just sucks those things dry.

she also had her first taste of a tootsie pop (a beach necessity), and loved them.  

 

she spent some real quality time with her gramps on this trip.  lots of walks and bike rides.  i wish i had gotten a picture of her in the bike trailer.  she loved that thing.  cody and i are looking for one to buy so we can take her on bike rides.

her little footprints

 this week, the people next to us had a catamaran, it was pretty awesome to watch them go out on it.  mae just wanted to play with it.  whenever we came down to the beach, she would go straight for it.  they were really nice, and let her play around it.

this week oma and opa came down to the beach for a few days.  it was great to be able to spend time with them.  we got another 4 generation picture. 

the beach is my favorite place.  and i'm so glad i was able to share it with my daughter, and to see her enjoy it as well.  i'm so grateful we were able to spend time with family, and that mae is able to get to know so many amazing people!
