Vacation...

A couple weeks ago, we (Matt, Mandi, Anna Lauren, and Nanna) went to Perdido for a few days of vacation. I was so excited and just knew Anna Lauren was going to have the time of her life...we were going to swim, play in the sand, take a nap, and go back for some more. Well, that was not the case as Anna Lauren hated the sand. The only thing that interested her about the beach was the water hose you used to wash the sand off of you. She played with the water hose as long as we would allow and would get in and out of the pool a few times and would go to the door asking to leave. So...once again, I reminded myself that you just never know with children. We will try again next summer and see what happens...Matt and I just love the beach so I think we were disappointed she didn't love it as much as we expected...again, I must remind myself she is only a baby. I'm sure she will be begging to go one day, and I'll be wishing she was still that baby who hated the sand. However, we did capture a few pictures while we were there.

This is what happens when you go on vacation with Nanna...she takes you to the grocery store and buys you chocolate covered donuts and lets you sit on an ice chest and eat them. Anything you want when with Nanna, right?

We thought this was hilarious...we put Anna Lauren down for a nap and later went back to check on her. To our surprise this is what we found...fortunately we were able to get the diaper back on without waking her up and before she had an accident.

The last night we were there, she decided she would consider liking the sand. This picture is blurred, but I love it because it is so our Anna Lauren. Running around like "crazy"...just so full of life!
