Big Beach Weekend

Besides this being Nathan's first time to the beach, he also had a big first while we were there.  Thanks to Gigi having a tennis tournament at the Beach Club, we were able to visit for a long weekend.  We headed down Thursday afternoon.  Nathan did really well - sleeping for the first 3 hours of the trip.  When he woke up, it was time for him and the rest of us to have dinner so we stopped for about 30 minutes in Atmore.  The next leg of the trip wasn't quite as quiet.  Nathan fussed for about 45 minutes or so, but finally gave up and slept for the remainder of the drive.  Nicholas of course was good watching movies the whole time, but towards the end kept asking the ever popular "are we there yet?"  

The weather was gorgeous and Nicholas had a blast.  Every night he crashed and burned.  Friday evening while we were all eating dinner, Nathan was happy just playing on the floor.  Every now and then we would peek over the couch to make sure he was ok.  One time Gabe looked over and discovered that he was on his stomach (originally he was on his back).  Over the next few days, he rolled over a few more times.  He is pretty quick too, so you have to keep an eye on him.  Every time he rolled over his left side on to his stomach.

What are you guys looking at??

Nicholas loved the indoor pool and was very social with anyone else that came in - including three cheerleaders visiting for a competition.  Daddy thinks he could be trouble later on...

 It was a bit windy for Nathan but he still enjoyed the beach!

Nicholas would have stayed out there all day if we would have let him.  (And we probably would have except our pale boy would get burnt to a crisp)

 

This was also our first attempt to give Nathan a bath in a sink.  God bless baby bath tubs!  This did not look very comfortable for him. 

Thank you PawPaw and Gigi for a wonderful beach weekend!
