Beach

We went to the beach last week. We first went to Richard & Betsy's. We had such a great time with them and watching the kids play together. We wish we all lived closer to each other. Then we headed to Santa Rosa to stay with Kristin, Roger and my mom. Poor little Wes got sick before we left with a bad cough/cold and ear infection. So he didn't get to see the beach very much. Nate on the other hand loved it! Well most of it at least. As I predicted the sand wasn't a big hit with him. We first placed him in the sand and he froze. So we thought taking off his shoes was a better idea. Well we couldn't get both of them off because he wouldn't put his "naked" foot in the sand. So shoes went back on and we had to carry him to the water. Once he saw the waves he was in love. We kept saying "waves". So he ended up waving to the water. He would laugh and scream every time they would crash up against him. The waves would knock him down and he would get right back up and do it all over again. We did take him to the pool several times and he is getting braver each time. But the cutest thing is every time we left the ocean he would say "goodbye water".
