Beach Baby

Emily made her second beach trip a few weeks ago. I've just gotten the energy to go through our pictures and narrow it down to these million. :) She is a wonderful little traveler and was so much fun at the beach. Brad's family gave her tons of attention and spoiling. (Now that we're home, just the two of us, I realize it was too much attention!!) We stayed at a gorgeous condo on the bay and spent our days lounging at the pool and snacking on lots of great food prepared by the Mamaws. We hit the beach in the evenings when the sun wasn't quite as strong. Emily put her toes in the sand for the first time, and she loved it! She was so cute wiggling her toes and feeling the sand. Thanks Big Daddy and K for letting us tag along on the vacation!

This was the whole crew. We ate at a great little spot
called Cosmos for dinner one night- great food with live
music. It was the perfect summer, beachy feel!


She loved the sand!

We've decided Tyler has some sort of built-in
spring. The tide had made a wall of sand, and we
amused ourselves here for a while.

Have you ever seen the "Charlie Goes to
Candy Mountain" video on YouTube? Megan made
the leopleuradon from this. :)

It took lots of gear to get us all set up at the beach.



Em got tons of attention from Big Daddy.
This was Emily's first time in a swimming pool. She wasn't
too sure what to think about it. We couldn't get her to stop
staring at the water, so she's looking down in all the pictures.


Brad even let me go to the outlet stores on our
way out of town. Thanks, Brad!

She is such a sweet traveler! She doesn't like her
car seat, but she was a really good sport!

Such cute pictures!! Your sandals in the outlet mall picture look just like my favorite pair I got last year shopping with Eda in La Ceiba! We leave next week for our month+ in Trujillo. We have already been hearing how missed you all are this year. Emily is just precious and growing so quickly!
