Beach Adventure

We had a great time with Nick's family at Myrtle Beach this week! Quality time with Grandma, Uncle Andy, Aunt Jen Jen and cousin Leigha. It was great for Cali to get to spend so much time with family and for them to see her during the day when she is happy. Leigha (5 yrs old) loves Cali and loved trying to get her to laugh. She was helpful in picking up toys when Cali dropped them and with diaper changes.

We left Wednesday afternoon. Cali did well in the car with the help of 2 naps, toys and Classical Baby on YouTube on my Blackbery.

Thursday included a walk on the beach, playing in the ocean, shopping and dinner out. And of course the appearance of her first tooth!

Friday was more shopping, hanging around, and dinner out.

Saturday included playing at the pool and the drive home. This road trip was a little more difficult. The first 35 minutes were filled with screaming and crying. Once we stopped to eat she was so tired she slept the rest of the way home.

Here are pictures from our trip!

Cali's first time in the ocean. She LOVED the water. She couldn't keep her eyes off the water.


Cali in her hat!

Cool picture with the sea spray.


Cali playing with Daddy in the lazy river. She liked to splash in the pool!


Drying off with mommy!


We stayed in a 2 bedroom condo. Our room had 2 twin beds and no room for Cali's Pack N Play so... we put it in the closet. This worked surprisingly well. Nick took off the doors and in went the bed. It was easy to take care of her because she was right by my bed.
