Jonah's first time to put his tiny little toes in the beautiful white sand and splash in the crystal waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
This was around midday after we arrived at about 1am Saturday morning. I didn't think we'd be getting in the water because that morning when we went out for some groceries there were double red flags (hurricane Isaac had come through just two days before). When we returned there was only one red flag. So, obviously we weren't going to swim but we did stick out toes in and splash a little! The water and sky are always the prettiest after a big storm, but the humidity was super high and it was just plain hot. We only stayed about an hour and a half with plans to come back for longer on Sunday.
Jonah so wanted MeMe to just let him go. I feel like we'll be really in for it next year.
We all share a special love this wonderful place even with rough waves and scorching temps.
These are a combo of iphone/canon 7d photos.

Aw, how exciting; sounds like he loved it! I bet the water was warm! You caught some great pics here! Love that first shot and the one of his little tootsies in the water! How adorable :o)
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute Looks like he had a great time.
ReplyDeleteOh look at that, the water experience & sand & salt & sea air, i bet he slept well after all this fun. My children all had funny reactions to their first beach trip, we lived in the tropics so they were all very young. When it was my twins turn, one didn't like the feel of sand & the other one put a mouthful in, ick, love Posie
ReplyDeleteThat first time playing in the sand is so special! We enjoyed that experience this past weekend, too. Wonderful pics!
ReplyDeleteThese are great. I've never met a child who didn't love the beach! :)
ReplyDeleteA first trip to the beach is so much fun. It's getting to be fall up here, so we'll live vicariously through your pics today!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful little man :) The water looks so crystal clear! We're heading into Summer here and these pictures are making me look forward to beach days with the kids :)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Glad you guys had a good time. I can't wait to take Jackson to the beach for the first time. We're hoping to take him next summer.
