Beach!

I know I've posted very similar pictures before, but I had to share these anyway. Eleanor LOVES LOVES LOVES going to the beach, especially putting her toes in the water! She'll say things like this all the time: "E-nor [Eleanor] toes water. Ocean. Beach. Want toes water." One day last week we were driving over a bridge and she saw the water (actually the river, not the ocean) and practically started crying because she wanted to get in the water so badly. So, we decided to take the poor kid to the beach! As soon as we told her we were going she got SO excited, and when we got to the beach and she saw the waves she started squealing and stomping her feet in excitement. Poor kid, it's too bad she has parents who are content to only go to the beach once every few months even though we live 15 minutes away. I guess we'll have to do better.




You really have to hold on to her, because she has no fear and will run right out into the ocean!




Oh yeah, and this was from our early dinner before going to the beach.  I think she's a fan of spaghetti!  We were practicing our Spanish colors during dinner when she looked down, pointed at her belly, and said, "E-nor blanco."  Yup, the poor kid is as pale as her mama.

Very cute! We were at the beach yesterday too - and Liam was very interested in the water. Of course, it was only slightly above freezing, so he couldn't actually dip his toes in.
And might I just add that it is a CRIME that you do not visit the beach more often! Why don't we switch houses for a year? We'll appreciate the Florida waters for you. ;)
