The Beach!

The annual Glenn family trek to the Gulf coast was not deterred by BP, nor was our week at St. George Island, FL ruined by the clouds and rain. We had a blast and think we may have discovered our new favorite beach! The prices were better than Gulf Shores, and the beaches were beautiful and private! We ate, drank, and played games to our hearts' content, and we also made time for Liam to visit the doctor due to his second ear infection! All in all, it was a great week, and we are already looking forward to next year!

Liam LOVED the beach...

enjoyed his pail and shovel...



and was not afraid of the water!


All smiles at the beach!


Here are some oystermen hard at work...



and here is Dad enjoying the fruits of their labor!
Appalachicola oysters are truly the best!



Bocce Ball was fun!



And Papa even came down for a visit!


Liam and Mims loved the view from our back porch...

where Liam enjoyed playing peek-a-boo with Aunt Shannon.

and after all that fun, it's always nice to snuggle up
with Mama and a good book before naptime.

10 months old


Liam's 10th month has been fun! We visited Alabama and the Glenns, vacationed on St. George Island, and Liam got to hang out with his Gallagher grandparents for an entire weekend while Geoff and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary down in Hampton Roads (more detailed posts to come). Liam's personality is really starting to shine--he is still a pretty happy baby (except when he's hungry) and has become quite adventurous. He lets go of chairs and couches to try and walk on his own, and he loves to climb--up Mama and Dada, up the stairs, up and over just about anything! While we are STILL WAITING on teeth and more hair, Liam's smile and excited squeals can brighten any day.
