Mom was at Penn State for a conference all last week, so Daddy played Mr. Mom and held down the fort with the little guy. I missed my boys!! This was about the extent of our interactions:
Don't ya love the footwear?! We've been more or less drowning in all this rain, so a guy has to be prepared, right?
After a week apart and a whole lot of crummy weather, we were excited to get away for a long weekend in Atlantic City with Nana and Grandpa. It had been almost exactly a year since
Liam had been there last. What a difference a year makes!! It was surprisingly warm, and we couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather. Liam was totally in his element on the beach, although the water was waaaay too cold. Here he is daring to follow Grandpa into the water:
(Which was shortly followed by Liam falling down in the water and getting completely soaked! Who knew we needed a bathing suit in October?!)
An outfit change later, we hit up the boardwalk for a little walk:
Liam found some "friends" (who he promptly gave hugs to):
So much to do in AC-- what first?! Liam couldn't decide if he wanted to sleep, watch football, go for a walk in his stroller, or go swimming (see outfit below):
Hey, he insisted on this getup! What can I say?! Swimming won out, so we hit up the (fortunately indoor) pool at the resort:
The water was a little chilly there, too, so he hit up the not-very-hot tub with Nana to warm up;
On Monday, we went to Brigantine Beach-- so peaceful and quiet, and a much nicer beach than AC. Liam loved chasing the giant seagulls all over the beach! The seagulls, however, were not to be bullied. While we were down by the water, one actually went through Liam's diaper bag and stole a whole bag of pretzels!
