Hunting Island Day 2

On Tuesday we decided to go to the beach in the morning after breakfast.  Olivia is still not a fan of the water.  We tried several times to get her in.  She would even cry, "Mommy don't go in the water!"  Then she even said, "I just don't like the beach!"  She just doesn't know what she is missing!  So we stayed a bit even though she didn't like it.

Then we had lunch and took a nap.  Brendon rigged up an air conditioner so it was a bit cooler this year.  She slept about an hour and then was SUPER cranky.  She cried/whined for about an hour straight.  Soon we are going to call her Olivia whiner...she was very whiny this trip! 

Then we drove down to the pier and Nature Center.  Olivia loved looking at the fish, turtles, and snakes they have.  Then we walked the WHOLE pier to the end and back. 

Then it was dinner and bath time.  We did visit the playground twice a day...after breakfast and after dinner.  Then we stopped for an ice cream treat and a wagon ride.

Hunting Island Day 1

Not sure if I am going to get all of the posts done of our trip but at least Day 1.

We ventured off about 10:00 a.m. after dropping Jake off at the Pet Resort.  It took a little over 5 hours and we had a few stops for potty breaks and lunch.  Olivia did pretty good in the car.  A bit indecisive at times but she did fine. 

Rest Stop

We set up our camp and then had dinner.  After dinner we went down to the beach.  The tide was pretty high so we couldn't walk to far.  The tide was really high with the full moon.  Olivia didn't want to get in the water but she did get some shells.

The beach

After the beach we gave Olivia a bath.  This year we brought a little plastic tub.  She is not a fan of the shower still but this worked perfect.  Then it was bed time. 

 Olivia did pretty good until the middle of the night.  She woke up and wasn't too happy.  But I think she needed to go potty and then she went and then went right back to sleep.  She even slept until 7:15!

Just like mommy

Today while making some brownies I got Olivia to wear her matching apron for about 10 minutes!! She said she wanted to be just like mommy.  Then she wanted to take it off...this made mommy sad. But she at least wore it for the longest time yet!

Just like mommy!

This was the stand still Olivia picture!

Brendon and Olivia had a fun time in the pool today.  I could hear Olivia giggling and screaming while I was starting dinner.  Now she can climb up the ladder and then climbs back down the ladder. She is so brave around the pool.
