Our first family vacation was last August. Michael absolutely loved the beach as a 6 month old. We wondered how he would be this year since he is definitely more mobile. He is amazing at the beach. We have already been several times this year and we are heading back this weekend. He sits and plays in the sand for a long time and loves when Daddy brings him buckets of water. He also enjoys getting in the water on his terms. Sometimes he rather be in the sand and other times he rather be in the water. Overall, he can be at the beach for several hours without complaints. It is amazing how happy and content he is on these trips. The top picture is Michael at 6 months old and the picture below is Michael as a 16 month old. We cannot believe he is going to be 1 1/2 years old on August 27th. WOW!
