Batman is NOT scared of little ole Waves :p

3rd full day here in IOP with the little man.

Yesterday we took him out on a morning walk with my parents and decided to let him out of the stroller and he went straight for the water - fearless! He was wearing a Batman shirt and I mean, come on, who isn't fearless when representing Batman :p

(see photo below)

We took him out again a little later in his bath suit so he could really play in the water and sure enough...he played and played and played.

Then today he went out again TWICE to the beach and TWICE to the pool!

Now... because no SN blog is complete with a little poop story...

I took Grayson out to the beach by myself this morning and on the way back in I stopped at the pool to see if he would play in the pool since he was not interested in playing at my parents pool in TX last week....well he did and he did just fine...buuuuuuuut........as I was getting him out of the pool I noticed he was trying to poop (thank goodness it was when we were getting OUT) and I knew right then and there that it was not going to be a pleasant experience for me as everyone was out and about...and for those of you who have kiddos still in swimmies you know how not fun a poop in those things is.

So I quickly wrapped him in a towel and walked back to the house holding him the whole time hoping poop wasn't dripping down my leg.

When I got him in the house and laid him down to change him it was quickly known that baby wipes and just laying on a towel was not going to cut it...so I ask you to picture a small 5'2" girl trying to clean up the weird texture because of the water in his swimmy while trying to keep the little man from not reaching his hands in "those parts" or getting up and running and then just picking him up and a "LIGHT BULB...Shower!" moment hit me so I picked his little naked self up and ran as fast a could into the bathroom (yes his bottom still covered in poop....the texture was amazing let me tell you) and turned the shower on him with body wash and VOILA! we have a clean boy folks :p

*fhew*  I cannot tell you how many "pooptastrophes" we have had and it is not that I haven't wanted to share them...the best ones have just happened when I was really writing in the blog for awhile. But fear not.... there will be more.

Annnnyway, circling back around from my side track poop story moment....

Aside from that fun time, it was another GREAT day! After everyone was back we took him to the beach and the pool again and all went well :) 

He really opens up when he is down at the ocean, the same way he opens up when he is around Karat. I love it and I love knowing, at least now anyway, that beach trips CAN and WILL be in our future more often!
