Monday was a beach...

I love this picture of Tate...he is SO AMAZED by the vastness of the ocean. He was oooooing and ahhhhhhhing like crazy with his arms spread wide open and taking it all in!

He loved the sand...it may be his new favorite food!

"WHOA!!!! Look at this big shell!!!"



We had a great day on Monday. I truly think it was the best day of Tate's life...I am not kidding! He was in heaven. He loved the beach! He ate (and I really am not exaggerating) about 1/2 pound of sand. He managed to somehow swallow about 3 shells the size of dimes as well. He was so fasinated by the water, but was dangerously brave. He ablolutelt DID NOT want us to hold his hand while the waves were pounding in and knocking him over. He would have ran full speed into the cold ocean water and been swept off to sea if we would have let him. He loved it, by the time we left, we could not stop him from filling his mouth with handfulls of sand. I started thinking that this was no longer very healthy, so we headed home and got in the pool. Tate skinny dipped, but we all decided not to join in on that! Tate swam in the pool and then relaxed in the jacuzzi for about an hour. He was SO TIRED from his fun filled day in the sun that he conked out the moment his head hit the pillow! It was such a great day!
