the beach!

We had a great weekend! Saturday we got up early and headed down to Anna Maria Island for the day. The weather was BEAUTIFUL sunny and warm with a nice breeze..ahh i could have stayed forever! Cohen had a blast playing in the sand, chasing the birds or "duck ducks" and running from the waves. The water was still very cold so Eric and I were glad Cohen didn't want to go too far in! This was our first trip to the beach this year and I'm sure Cohen doesn't remember going last year. We talked to him about going to the beach but i don't think he had any idea what is was until we got there because he seemed pretty surprised to see the water and feel the sand on his feet. We are planning many more trips to the beach this summer!Testing out the sand with daddy

getting some "wawer" in his "buckbit"

He just couldn't understand why the birds kept flying away while he screeched and ran after them. He would hold out his hand like he wanted to hold them... so cute. Showing mommy how to digjuice break........
Lately he has started putting his bucket over his arm and waving saying bye. I guess Mommy's purse must look like a bucket to him?
