PBMT - Day 216

We headed out to the beach this morning as soon as we saw the rain had stopped. It was also Papa's first time going to the beach with Adrian. We brought along beach toys so Adrian can have some fun with the sand. All of us were so tired after spending an hour there at this beautiful weather (not so hot after the rain). We were so lucky that it started to rain again on our way back home.

Both Papa & Adrian are so focused on playing with the sand.


Adrian's first sand castle (i.e. Papa's first sand castle in 20 years!!! :)

Wow! So glad to know Adrian is enjoying the summer. He's walked with the sand in his toes, and mastered drinking from a straw. Don't worry about his walking/climbing my son (2 1/2) still needs occassional help climbing. It will come! Miss you, Candice

I wonder if it is too mean to teach Adrian how to bury his daddy in the sand! :-P (Not the head of course.) I bet he will be very surprised to be able to play such a game. You can also hide some of his toys in the sand and have him dig them out like in a treasure hunt. Or you could use a tree branch and teach Adrian the alphabets by writing in the sand. Beaches or sandboxes are such great places for little kids to play. I can let Kate play in her own sandbox for hours and she still won't get bored, albeit very very messy (because she plays with both sand and water = mud). When Kate was younger, she loved to roll in the sand while singing the Wiggles' "Rolling down the sandhill".
