Our Little Beach Bum

We spent the weekend with Joy and Dennis in North Myrtle Beach. Dennis was a groomsman in our wedding, and Landon was the best man in their wedding, and we felt really lucky that they invited us to stay with them, baby and all.

What a nice, low key, relaxing weekend!

Helping Mommy pack for our trip. Cora is in a huge shoe phase right now. Hers, mine, Daddy's. All shoes are fair game, and if Cora spots them even from across the room, she starts crawling speedily towards them. We've never been people who put our shoes in the closet as soon as we come home... Cora is changing our habits.




So so tired from packing.

Cora and I woke up early on Saturday and slipped out for a nice beach run.


This was the first day that Cora spent a significant amount of time on the beach, and experienced different types of sand (dry, hot, wet, etc.). For Cora, it was like a smorgasboard of tastes... we haven't broken the sand-eating habit yet.


After the beach, Cora wouldn't nap. We tried everything, and so we finally just gave up and let her play. She was playing with Joy, fussed for just a second, and then practically collapsed on her chest. Joy was so sweet to lay there and let Cora nap on her... and so I snuck a nap too.










She looks so grumpy here... but she was being so silly right before this. In fact, she clapped for the first time while sitting on my lap under the umbrella.

Joann Kent & Linda Bradley McKee have been saying a nursery rhyme everytime they see Cora.
I had never heard it:
"There was a little girl, who had a little curl, right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good she was very very good. But when she was bad she was horrid."
