I know I said I would try and post some pictures while on vacation, but let me be honest, I totally unplugged and really enjoyed every minute of it. I didn't realize how stressed I was until I got there and had to teach myself how to relax! And then when I did, man did it feel good.
Being at the beach with my husband, toddler, and some of our family was hands-down one of the best weeks we have had in a long time. So much fun, that we are already planning next year's vacation!
Ryan had the time of his life too. He grew even closer to his grandparents and picked up some new words along the way! He was totally in his element (my little beach bum) and to see the pure joy in his face was totally worth it. He did end up with an ear infection, from a cold, at the start of our vacation, but once the doc ordered the antibiotic, he was good to go.
So instead of rambling on and on with words, I thought I would share some photos on this lovely Monday morning with you!
Enjoy:
 |
| Gigi (my mom) introducing Ryan to the ocean for the first time! |
 |
| He wasn't too fond of the waves in the ocean (or the "oca" as he called it). |
 |
| He made himself home in the kitchen instantly. |
 |
| Beach stores are the best! I am still mad I didn't end up buying these gems. |
