In September we made another trip to the beach. My parents were supposed to go with us but the day before we were supposed to leave my mom got exposed to Fifth's disease. This can be devastating to a pregnancy so they didn't get to come. It was horrible! Bryson had really been looking forward to playing with them at the beach. I think my mom cried for three days!
We decided to make the best of the trip and ended up having a great time (even though we really missed them!). We are looking forward to spending some time with them at the beach next summer.
September is definitely the time to go to the beach. There was no one there and the weather was amazing. When we got there the temperature was in the low 80s. It almost felt like we were on the Eastern coast instead of the Gulf! The water was clear and the beach was clean. We could not have asked for anything better!
I think Bryson's favorite part of going to the beach is riding in the elevator. He is still talking about it.
The first night we headed down to the beach for a walk. Bryson definitely becomes a free spirit when he hits the beach. I'm thinking he is going to love it as much as I do.
Jellyfish!
We were racing back and forth to the water. Bryson kept drawing a line in the sand with his foot for us to stand behind before the race started. Then he would get down like he was getting ready to run a race at a track meet and say "Ready, set, go!". Too cute!
Last time we were at the beach Bryson got a horrible rash/burn on the inside of his legs from the sand and the salt rubbing inside of his bathing suit, so this time he went bottomless most of the time.
Annabel loved rubbing the muddy sand all over herself. She was so funny!
The men getting ready to go wade fishing.
One evening this was set up for a wedding. Pretty and simple.
Carrying on our tradition of donuts for breakfast (every morning!).
Before we left town we headed to the aquarium at Moody Gardens. All of the kids loved it and it was a lot of fun to watch them get so excited at the different exhibits.
We spent most of our time chasing these two...
Shark Tank!
What a great trip! Looking forward to another late summer trip next year with another baby!
