Va Beach Vacay!
We had a great time at Va Beach! By the time we checked into the hotel on Friday, it was, of course, pouring rain... but we made the most of it! Elliott was a little intimidated by the ocean (I think he felt a little vertigo when the water came up), so he didn't want to stand in the water on his own. But he would sit in my lap at the water's edge as the surf came up over our legs, and he seemed to like that. We sat there for a long time and Elliott was very quiet and peaceful.
On Saturday, the day started out overcast, but the sun peeked through by lunch. It was kind of nice that the sun was hiding behind the clouds as it was not as hot and I was not as worried about Elliott getting sunburned.
After a long day outside, Elliott thinks Mommy needs to rehydrate. Have some apple juice!
On the way there, we stopped for lunch at the Cheese Shop and Elliott enjoyed running around a little downtown. We hoped to wear him out for a more peaceful car ride, and (for the most part), it worked.

Elliott had fun digging in the sand. Daddy helped him find baby crabs. and the sand was perfect for building sand castles (aka knocking down sand castles).

Baby Cinderell-O
For all those non-baby people out there, perhaps this will lead you to reconsider? Elliott is a big help around the house! Just call him Baby Cinderell-O!
Cinderell-O... Cook us breakfast! (Yummm... peppered corn flakes, my favorite!)
Cinderell-O.... Sweep the bathroom!
Cinderell-O... vacuum the floor! (How cute is he? He pushed it around like it was a full-size upright vaccuum cleaner. Oh, and it had to be on.)
Cinderell-O... clean the spilled corn flakes! (Same as aforementioned corn flakes from breakfast)
After all his hard work, he went to (play with) the Ball.
