we took haley to her first beach, and of course it was atlantic city! we were gone 3 nights. she had a BLAST playing in the sand but was NOT a fan of the water at all....not even to wash her hands & feet. so we kept our distance from the waves. the weather was not very cooperative with rain 2 of the 3 days. but we managed to go out to the beach 3 times (before the rain, with the clouds) and still got to experience the scene. she got pretty good at 'shooing' the seagulls away as we were on the beach and boardwalk.
it was our first time together in a hotel room and we borrowed bed rails from Brian & Tamara. they worked great, but it took haley at least an hour each night to fall asleep & she was up at 6:30 each morning. so, she was in the hole 2 hrs of sleep at minimum each day.
we made to the indoor pool once and tried out haley's puddle jumper floatation device. she liked how it supported her and she was able to swim around (well, kick her feet while we moved with her!) it was fun.
trey & i played a little bit (alternate while haley slept) but no luck. oh well, we weren't expecting any.
haley was really into riding in her stroller during this vacation, so we spent some time going up & down the boardwalk.
here are some pics:
happy as a clam
loved rolling in the sand
