After the "dunk"

The first water experience

We were able to go to the beach twice while in RI. We went to Sand Hill Cove in Narragansett which is a calmer beach and more geared towards families. THe first day was kind of cool and it sprinkeled a little which was fine by me because it was perfect for Brody...less sun=Less people! My friends Aoife, Lisa, and Gretch all came too to assist. He had a blast running up and down the beach and in and out of the water. The highlight (for me anyways) was when Brody got mad a headbutted the beach when I was trying to corral him and got sand all over himself. It was hysterical because he didn't know what to do so he just made a face. After we took his picture and discussed the best way to de-sand him, Auntie Lisa decided it was best to take him into the ocean and dunk him in the waves...which worked fine by everyone thank goodness.

The next day, the weather was much better and Jon was able to come too. Brody turned out to be quite the toy theif, but finally calmed down when he shared toys with another family there. All in all, it was great to get down there, snack on some Iggy's clamcakes and chowder, get some lobsters off the boats, and grab some replacement URI gear for Brody and I. I am SO happy that Brody loves the ocean and the beach as much as we do!
