Fun in the Sun






We had a BLAST at the beach. Caedmon absolutely loved the waves and sand. He couldn't get enough. It was a little too cold for this girl, so daddy spent a lot of time in the water!
We learned the hard way that Caedmon is still sensitive to caffeine. Back when he was about 5 weeks old, Chase and I went out for a quick dinner alone to Outback and I had 2 glasses of sweet tea. Came home, nursed Caedmon, planned on going to bed...only he was up til 4 a.m. wide awake. Happened again 2 days later and I finally made the connection that he was overstimulated by the caffeine. So we switched to decaf and never had another problem. Until Friday. His aunt B let him gulp on her sweet tea from Lamberts and the kid was wired til 11! My kid is usually asleep no later than 8, but usually closer to 7! It was not fun at all and definitely solidified by water only rule (he does get the occasional cup of juice at his mamaws and his daddy has been rumored to give him a sip of Diet Coke before).
I got in some shopping on our way in to town. They dropped me off at the outlets, went and checked in, then came back for me. We ate dinner at Lamberts, which is always good. Who doesn't love a throwed roll?
Saturday morning we were down at the beach by 8:30. My how times have changed. I used to not see the beach til 10 at the earliest! We went to my favorite, Peppers, for lunch, then headed back for a much needed nap. After Caedmon and I woke up from our nap, we headed down for a little more beach time. We spent the evening at the Wharf then headed home. Sunday we woke up to cloudy, windy day. We went down for a little bit, then decided to pack up and head back northwest.
It was a wonderful, relaxing weekend.
