Last week, BabyCakes and I were fortunate enough to spend the entire week playing at the seashore. Mr. C was there from time to time, but since we always have 5 different things going on at once in this house, he was traveling to and from the beach to attend his grad classes. This left him driving 16 or so hours back and forth in one week, just to spend a few days with his family. Isn’t he the best?
I’m sure Mr. C was glad that he could witness his now 17-month old’s first meaningful time playing at the beach. Since he wasn’t there the first day, I had to snap a few shots of Baby Cakes’ reaction
At times, he would scream with all he had in him, just to be heard above the crashing of the waves. I fear that he would have run straight across the Atlantic if we let him. That being said, Baby C became obsessed with the ocean. Once we were back at the house (which has an amazing view of the beach) every other word was “o-shun?”. Sometimes, he would put more than one word together to get his point across to whoever’s leg he could tug on, “O-shun? try?” I guess we should start looking for some beach front property!
Here are some of our views from the week. I had to practice my amateur photography!
I think that although Baby C has been to the beach 3 times previous to this trip, none was as exciting and new to him as this experience. I will always remember snuggling with him that first Sunday morning that we woke up in our home upon returning. He looked at me and said,
“more?”
“more what, bud?” I asked.
“o-shun?”
Yes, little man, I think we all need a little more “o-shun” in our lives.
