Bryce's First Beach Adventure

I cannot tell you what a fantastic time we had this year with B-man on his first summer vacation, July 18-23. First, we stopped off in Birmingham to see his pediatric cardiologist (went great and he weighed 14lb. 12 oz.) and then continued south to Point Clear but not before we made a pit stop at Peach Park and got pictures with the big peach and horses..... The Grand Marriott-Point Clear is amazing if you have never been. Bryce had a ball putting his feet in the sand for the very first time, swimming in the gigantic pool with mommy and daddy, and playing at the tiny splash pad. Mommy and Daddy felt like kids again going down the waterslide. Bryce had just recently started eating solid food so that was nice to get to feed him from a spoon some of the time rather than breastfeeding him 7 times a day. After a couple of nights, just the three of us, we met the rest of my family at the beach in Gulf Shores where we ate lots of great seafood, shopped til we dropped at the Foley outlets, and chilled on the beach. Bryce had the best time on the beach...thank goodness I brought his bathtub for him to play in on the beach...he was able to stay out one day from 10:30 until about 3 which is a big deal for a 6 month old. He loved playing with his cousin Catherine. Next year will surely be a treat when both of them are toddling. He was such a great traveler. I think we stopped once going down and once coming home. Can't wait to decide where to head to next. Thanks for reading. Enjoy the pics.
