The Beach!

We took our first little mini vacation as a family (outside of visiting family) we went to Daytona Beach for a few days. It was Gabe's first time, he really enjoyed the sand as for the ocean he's a little unsure - I think the waves were overwhelming (it was pretty chilly too). He did however enjoy the pool! It would be nice to live closer to the beach, it's difficult to go often when it takes a couple hours to get to it.
Gabe and I are getting ready to go to NY next week, I'm a little nervous flying with him by myself since he is such a busy body. I flew with him by myself when he was 4 months old but that was easy because he just slept. I'm just praying that it wont be that bad especially if I get a few new toys- the way back is what will be tough since they have us flying all over the US (we have 2 or 3 layovers yuck!) We will definitely miss Daddy while we are gone, this will be the first time away from him for this long (we are sad that he can't come with us)

Here are some pics from the beach.













He loves his baths so I imagined he would love the pool, it's like an enormous bath tub. He did try to dive out of his float though.


This is a short video clip of him playing in the sand!

He looks so cute! You guys look like you had so much fun. New York will be amazing. We will have to talk about when to get together before you leave.

cute!! We'll miss you when you go up to NY - I'll be thinking about you while you're traveling... hopefully it won't be too stressful! Thanks for the advice about Kohls today - I got some earrings that I think will work (and they had just enough - 4!) - and don't tell anyone they were on sale for $8 each ;) haha...this way I'll be able to get them something a little more personal with them... I'll show you Sunday! have a good weekend :)
