Beach vacation

We are back from a fantastic vacation at the beach!

Here are the highlights from our trip to Amelia to see Grandma and Grandpa:

Jonathan was very happy to see them and got lots of cuddle time in.


Boy meets dog. Cricket was not thrilled about Jonathan's presence in his home. Too much competition for cuddle time.


On Friday, we took Jonathan swimming for the first time. He loved reclining in the float and kicking his legs while Jer moved him around the pool.




Afterwards, it was naptime for the little guy and I got a chance to kick back in the shade a little bit too.


We did Grandma's famous sink baths all weekend. Jonathan loved his rubber duckies!


That night we went to the Ocean Club for dinner and Jonathan was not having it. We enjoyed a peaceful dinner of scarfing down food and taking turns walking him around the room and eventually outside by the pool to keep him happy and not disturbing the other diners.

This fussy behavior has been his MO lately. File it under fun things about having a seven-month-old!

Saturday we did some more swimming and just hung around the house - so relaxing.

On Sunday, we went to a cute little place in downtown Fernandina Beach for Mother's Day brunch. Jonathan was not thrilled yet again, but he was slightly more manageable this time.

Later that day we took Jonathan walking on the beach.




On Monday we spent a few hours clinging on to our vacation before we headed home. We took another stroll along a golf course and in pretty shaded neighborhoods in the Plantation.

It was hard to say goodbye to such a fun weekend, but we look forward to our next visit with Grandma and Grandpa in Jackson, WY this summer!
