Fun in the Sun--Part II

Papa and Mimi


A new trick where he clasps his hands and clenches them and then he makes his face turn red. So funny!!

Loving his hushpuppies

Another part of his entertaining us and the tables around us!












Bath time in the kitchen sink--Mohawk Man!




Bundled up!



Here are pictures from the fun today. Pax loved the ocean even more today! Brad was playing with him while I was holding him and would swim away and then ride a wave back to us. Pax would just laugh and laugh. Then, he started trying to swim after him. He would start kicking and moving his arms trying to go! He's been doing this in the pool, but not with all the waves.




We have been cooking in most nights, which has been great, especially with a little one. Well, tonight, we decided to go out to Louisiana Lagniappe. It was absolutely delicious, and Pax was an "angel" as Brad said. This was probably the fanciest and most crowded restaurant (The Melting Pot for my birthday was practically empty!) that Pax has been to. I expected him to be good, but I really didn't expect him to be this wonderful!! But, he was thoroughly entertained by the birds and boats out the window. Plus, he was the entertainment for us as well! Such a little ham!


We had electrical/AC issues yesterday, and an AC guy came out late last night. He found some wires that had melted together, so we couldn't run the AC last night! Ugh! We slept with ceiling fans on full blast and it was a little muggy when we woke up. An electrician came by this afternoon and had to rewire some things, and we now are sitting at a cool 71 degrees! Thank goodness! When we were having these electrical issues, a breaker kept tripping, and knocking out the water heater, so we didn't have hot water in our bathroom. Luckily, we had some in the kitchen, so that's where Mimi ended up bathing Little Man. He loved it!!

Fun in the Sun--Part I

He loves the sand and doesn't care about it getting all over him!

The guys-Brad, Pax, Keith, Brooks, and Steve


We are having a blast in Perdido Key! I wanted to share these pictures from today. Pax absolutely loves the sand, the ocean, and the pool. He is especially content and independent playing in the sand, which gives everyone a chance to sit down and sun bathe. We are excited that we still have more time down here!


That's all for now--more to come later!
