It's been a wonderful first day of vacation! Jack slept better last night than he does at home! He didn't get up until almost 9 this morning and that was after only getting up once during the night. No, he didn't sleep in the big bed, but he looked too cute there to not snap a picture! What a great start to vacation!
We spent some time on the deck enjoying the perfect weather and then it was off to the grocery store. Jack slept through part and was awake and just taking in the other half. With that behind us, we headed to the pool. We thought we'd start there as we didn't know how he was going to take to it all and it is closer to the parking lot than the beach, lest we have to drag all of our gear (and there was a LOT) back to the car. I held him over the baby pool and let his feet get wet...and he fussed. We were worried, but just like his momma, once he got used to it, he loved it!
After swimming, he took a nap in his bouncy seat inside his little shade tent. This is about the time the camera batteries died, but here's a photo of it from the website (onestepahead.com) where we bought it.
Another great purchase for those with new tiny ones headed for the sun (or you are welcome to borrow ours!). He caught the breeze with the sides rolled up but was shaded and protected from the bugs. It pops up and then folds right back up into its little carry bag. He took a nice long nap in there while Daddy and I read our books in the sun.
Then it was time for showers and baths and dinner! We went to Sea Pines to the Wreck of the Salty Dog and once again, Jack was a dream. He slept all the way there and so we assumed he'd sleep through dinner too...but he was up before we got to the table. Even so, he just sat and looked around and never uttered so much as a peep. He's such a good boy!
He's in bed now and we probably aren't too far behind him. We sure hope tomorrow will be just as great! Wish you ALL were here!
