An Afternoon with Alex

Another day at the beach...and Alex couldn't be happier! He is a true beach bum! He loves playing in the sand, diving in the ocean {dodging stingrays...yikes!} searching for shells and building sandcastles. While Emily was taking a nap, Alex and I had a nice afternoon floating in the ocean, digging a hole for the 'sea creatures' and hanging out watching pelicans and sailboats, just the two of us.

  1. That is so great! What's not to love...sun, sand, surf and mother/son bonding time. Great memories were created for sure.

  5. ummm..dodging sting rays..yikes.

    Greatpics...we just don't hang with one child enough do we?

    I realized last winter when Sam and I ran into the city for preschool shoes for him that it was the first time in this 3 yr olds life that we did anything along together..sad isn't it.
