Kale's first beach trip



Friday we decided to go to the beach to get out of the house. Ryan just had back surgery and had to get two of his vertebra fused together and so he has been stuck in the house just laying around. He was feeling better so we all decided to go on a much needed outing. We got up around ten and started getting ready. Kale has grown a good bit but he still couldn't fit into his o-3 month bathing suit. It swallowed him WHOLE! I had also gotten him some really cute brown sandals which swallowed him whole also. So, we had to settle for a onesie. I was a little nervous how the ride down to the beach was going to go because Ryan didn't exactly know what beach we were going to go to. We had decided to drive down 319 and look for a kind of deserted family beach. Kale was awesome in the car he only cried once and that was just because he was wet and hungry. I was so proud of him!!! We got there and he did start to get fussy but that was only because it was time for him to eat again. We fed him a bottle got settled in and took some pictures. Kale absolutely loved the sound of the ocean! He had a blast however, he did not know what to think about the sand every time I stuck his feet into the sand he would curl them up as close as he could to his body. It was so funny. He didn't cry though and he kind of enjoyed having his feet stuck into the water but it was a little cold! We stayed on the beach for a while and just hung out and then decided to go get some dinner. There were not too many choices but I had seen a sign on a restaurant where oysters were four dollars and I wanted oysters so bad! We walked in and Ryan looked at the menu and said I had a made a bad choice. I didn't know why he thought that he told me to look at the menu. One meal was 70.00$ and that was for fried food that did not look that great. I was like oh my gosh. We decided to order some appetizers and a drink but not eat there because I know me and Ryan did not want to pay that and his parents didn't either. I did get my oysters though and they were super delish! We left there and drove down more and finally found a restaraunt. It was so good! They had these funky fans that Kale just stared at the entire time.

On the way home Kale did fuss a little bit but I think he was just a little sick of being in his carseat for so long. we pulled over in a parking lot and I held him for a few minutes and then put him back in his carseat and we got back on the road. He was so good the rest of the way home he just pretty much slept and looked around. I was so proud of him and so glad that Ryan got to be with us on his first beach visit because Kale and I are going to the beach with my mom and sister in June and its a girls only trip well minus Kale so at least we got to go to the beach so Ryan could see him on his first trip. It was also neat because we found a really cool beach that is not that far away so we can go back sometime again!
