Fourth of July Weekend

We had a great fourth weekend. We spent most of our time at the beach soaking up the sun. On the 3rd B actually got home from work early so that we could go have a bonfire on the beach with some of our friends. We had a blast, and the kids did great. It definitely satisfied my smores craving. The next morning we heading back to the beach in Santa Monica. I actually got in the water this time. Those who know me, know that I don't like to be in the ocean unless there are a lot of people (that way statistically, odds are in my favor that I won't be the one eaten by a shark:). I went boogie boarding and the only thing I was attacked by was the constant flow of kelp onto the beach. I don't like kelp...I think I screamed every time it got wrapped around my leg. Seth, however, had no fear what so ever. He has a new found obsession with sand...especially eating it and stroking his hands through it. The blanket we were sitting on was no place for Seth. He would quickly wander away onto the sand and crawl as fast and as far as he could. He never even looked back to see where we were. If I didn't go pick him up and bring him back, I am confident we would have a lone baby crawling along the beach forever (or at least until he got hungry). Finally, we had hot dogs at the park and played bocce ball. Fun stuff!!
