Yep, you guessed it, the fun in the sun did not happen in NY! We were in FL to see friends and get some family time and Mathwon mixed in work in there as well. We had a great time visiting with our friends Troy, Angel, Elijah, and Josie. Demani had his first visit to the ocean and we were a bit surprised at this reaction to the sand and the water. He wanted NOTHING to do with the sand - if it got on his hands or his feet he was instantly unhappy. We had to hold him the entire time we were on the beach at our first visit. He slowly warmed up to the beach by the time we left FL but he would only stand on wet sand with his sandals on. He still wanted nothing to do with the dry sand. It was wonderful to be able to go outside and take a walk in the warm weather. And I am a big fan of the beach:) I actually would have Demani take his nap in the stroller and I would put him in the shade and I would get to sit on the beach and read. What a luxury!! It was fun to see him explore new things and play with Elijah and Josie. It makes me excited for him and the siblings he will have to play with!
He is learning something new and understanding more and more each day. He is perfecting his animal sounds and has added baaa for sheep and meow for kitty. He has learned how to say no and enjoys expressing his opinion through pointing, shaking his head, and whining. Needless to say, we are ready for him to begin using words :)

The one of him looking at his sandy hand is priceless! I, too, love the one where Mathwon is holding him up in the air...how precious.
I like his little searsucker(sp?) outfit - he looks like he belongs on the beach in that little outfit. They're all so cute!
I enjoyed hearing his animal sounds last night. Love ya!
