 BEACH 2012!!!  We got back from the glorious beach and had an absolute blast!! Okay - these photos did not upload in order so apologies for that! But, you get the gist of what we did every day :)
Also, as a side note we missed Daddy!! He had to stay behind and work hard while we were being lazy beach bums. But I am sure he enjoyed some peace and quiet too :)




 Proof that he tried and actually ate cheetos!!!! see those cheesy fingers? :)



 Logan pretty much stayed under the beach house playing in his kiddie pool standing under the outdoor shower head and running all over saying "go go go go go!" it was hilarious!
 These pics are from the second day at the beach - following Grammy...


 We had to entice him with the "go go go go!" and run away so he would follow and actually test out the sand. He didn't mind it in his water shoes - but the sun was so bright it hurt his eyes the whole time. He wouldn't wear sunglasses poor guy





 Happy happy boy! He LOVED this baby pool and trickling shower head!!




 saying "CHEESE" :)







 Grandaddy and Logan playing in the pool
 My little Beach Bum :)






 These are the very first day on the beach pics - he just discovered the shower head!!

 Grandaddy and Logan playing and reading


 He was exhausted when we arrived - he just laid out on the floor for a few seconds!




 Fantastic view!



 Okay - so we took him out the first day and he initially did fine just walking on the sand - we were excited for the water and finally took him to see the waves and his first connection was this wave that was huge and almost took him out to sea - haha   SO...needless to say that was the end of the ocean. It was too big and scary - he didn't even want mommy or grammy getting near it :) Sweet boy







 Grandaddy watching us from the house


 Poor thing he kept one hand over one eye the entire time, that darn sun :)








Sooo the trip actually went great we split it into two days and stayed in a hotel after 4 hours of driving down and 5 on the way back. He did amazing - of course didn't sleep a wink in the car but Benadryl quickly became out best friend!! We had our portable dvd player ready to go with his favorite baby einstein dvds so we drugged him a little to make him sleepy and he just sat in a Benadryl Coma for 2+ house - never falling asleep - but not screaming! So definitely a success!  When we got to the hotel he was obsessed with this microwave we unplugged and put on the floor. Plus turning on and off the lamps. Hours of fun!




 Here is the setup - dvd player...
 and Benadryl Coma...

 Sorry these skip around so much - couldn't figure out the new format! Anyway day 2 on the beach...





 Loving him some Grammy and Grandaddy!

 Hotel lamps - obsession


It was a great trip - other than the fact that I left my wallet at home.......yes. I did that. And Trey had to overnight it to me ($40 later) UGH. Otherwise I didnt have my license to drive or get a tasty beverage or anything! Other than that we all enjoyed being together and Logan did amazing - for a kid who doesn't love change he slept perfectly in his pack n play and adjusted just fine!! We even went out to eat one day for lunch and he did great there too. :) Will post more later about his 22 month post - but July is quickly approaching and I am in total denial he will be TWO.................
