This boy was a beach bum this weekend! We headed out to Seabrook Island on Saturday to go to the beach while daddy worked in his office. Tillman loves the beach because he has free-reign of the place to do what he wants. When he is in the house, we are often "no Tillman," don't touch that," and on and on and on. At the beach he can run and play without the word "no!"
He has been a little scared of the water the last few times going to the beach. I think the water was too cold for comfort causing him to run away anytime a wave would come in. The water has gotten a lot warmer now that we are into May already, and he was stomping his feet and splashing about on Saturday!
Tillman got to see tons of jelly fish and a crab. Of course, now that I say he didn't hear the word "no" on the beach, I'm quickly eating those words. The jelly fish were of course "no no's!" There were tons of them along the beach after the tide went out. His Papaw saw a crab com up from the sand, and so Tillman was introduced to the crab.
We stayed for 3 hours, and Tillman was certainly ready for a nap but wasn't giving up and going to sleep in his stroller for fear of missing some action. In fact, he waited until the ride home to finally go to sleep. He was one tuckered out kiddo by the time we got home.
Since Tillman enjoyed Seabrook on Saturday so much, and our deep-sea fishing trip was canceled, Nick and I took Tillman out to Edisto on Sunday afternoon. That beach is a lot different than Seabrook, but gave us a change of scenery for the day. Tillman was running down the hill to the water there as well, and he was soaken-wet and sandy by the time we loaded up the car.
He road home in only a diaper after we had given him a "bath" with wet-wipes. He had sand from head to toe, but he wasn't the least bit concerned...a true beach boy at heart!
