Beach Babes

Texas summers are hot, hot, hot, so we stay cool hanging out at the beach and by the pool. Surfside Beach is only about 15 minutes away from us, so it's easy to head over whenever we have some free time. Will seems to love it. He just stares at the water and he loves squishing wet sand in his fingers and toes.

All the beaches in Texas are drive-on beaches, so it's easy to get a good set-up. A lot of people bring canopies and things and stay there all day. We just have a Sport-brella that we put up, and lay a mat and towels down under it for Will. It works great and is big enough for Will to hang out and sleep in the shade.

William always tries to lay in the sand, so we decided we should just let him. Turns out it was a bad idea. He was doing okay until he got tired and started rubbing his eyes with sand. Bad parenting moment!

And I just had to share this picture because I think it's so cute. We took Will to the pool at our apartment and he was so pooped he just laid in Adam's arms. He didn't even try to pull off his hood or glasses. What a little cutie.
