Beach Trip Part 1

The first weekend in August I found a great deal on a condo in PCB Florida and got approval from the doctor to travel a little later in my pregnancy. Jarom was pretty much out of time off work, but I begged him to find a way to make it work with his schedule so we could have a little family vacation before our newest little lady arrived, and he was able to rearrange his weekly day off to give us a couple of days at the beach. Thanks hubby!!!

We got down to FL late that evening but were able to squeeze in a little beach time until it got too dark to see. Addie was SO excited to be there after the long drive!

The next day we played on the beach all day...That first full day at the beach was SO hot! There wasn't much of a breeze from the gulf that day so we roasted! See Addie's sweat on her nose?We knew we didn't have a ton of time to spend at the beach this year so we maximized our time on the beach by packing our lunch in a cooler each day to eat on the beach. It was so much fun to be able to stay down on the beach all day!Once we were exhausted from the heat, we cleaned up, took a nap, ate dinner out, then went on our tradition of a crab hunt. Jarom is such a thoughtful daddy and bought Addie her own flashlight before heading out to the beach.

We got down on the beach for the crab hunt and a man and son had caught a crab about the size of a dollar bill and Addie was fine to look at it, but when they let it go in the sand Addie freaked out crying like I haven't ever seen her be scared before. Bless her heart, it scared her to death! She was okay once I found her a "baby crab" though and even held it and loved it... to death. I told her it was sleeping when it wouldn't wake up the next morning. Oops.

Addie cheesing it up before dinner. She loves to have her picture made and asked me to take her picture on the balcony. Love this little girl!!!

More to come!
