beach babe

Addie has a love-hate relationship with the beach. She likes playing in the sand with her beach toys and even sitting at the water's edge feeling the waves lap up onto her legs. She occasionally would let us take her out into the deeper water but mostly wanted to stay in the sand. Inevitably she'd rub her eyes with her sandy hand or go to suck her beloved finger and the gig was up and suddenly the beach was her enemy. The first day we arrived a little Taiwanese boy (with a name I can't spell or pronounce) was next to us with his family and they shared beach toys. She's already making international friends. As the weekend went on we played at the beach but also in the many swimming pools the resort had to offer. For her first trip to a beach she couldn't have had a more prime place to explore. Some day she'll look back on these pictures as her first real taste of the beach. And taste she did...of both the sand and the salt water on more than one occasion.
