Jude had his first beach trip last week. Jeremy had a convention in Destin and we got to tag along. Fun for us, but not for Jeremy since he was working. My parents joined us and brought my niece and nephew.
It took us 6 hours to get there, a trip that should have taken 4 1/2 hours. The joy of traveling with a baby! We did manage to get down to the beach for a few minutes that evening so that Jeremy could be with Jude on his first visit to the beach. Of course, true to Jude form, he didn't have much of an opinion about it. He is so laid back and along the ride for just about anything.
The next day Grandma and Gramps came we loaded up Jude, Justin, and Kendall and headed for the beach. Gramps dragged the cart full of stuff across the street and down the beach. We set up the umbrella, towels, and hit the water. It was beautiful and oil free. We made it a sum total of 15 minutes before all the kids decided they had enough. So Gramps loaded everything back up and hauled it back across the street and we hit the pool. No sand or saltwater equals happier kids!
Grandma and Gramps left on Friday and it was just Jude and I for the day. We went to the pool in the morning and Jude actually took a nap there while I enjoyed a good book. It was a nice morning for us both.
