We spent some relaxing days at Dad and Jill's time share in Sapphire Valley. We came as close to becoming vegetables as you possibly can without actually turning into one...but we all know that's just silly. We took a lot of naps, read a lot of books/newspapers, and Brady spent a lot of time in the indoor pool. It was way too cold for any outdoor pool experience. He liked it all the same and I am now thinking of getting him enrolled in some kind of swimming lessons. This boy has no fear of water!
On the way home, we were lucky enough to be passing through during my niece, Peyton's, 1 year birthday. It was good to see Andrew and it was so much fun watching Peyton run around.
The beach was quite the opposite pace we experienced in the mountains. This was a rather large family reunion on Adam's side and there were many fun loving cousins that came to visit from Texas. There were a lot of people to meet and I thought Brady did very well as he continued to flash that innocent boyish smile as he was passed from person to person well into the night.
There was much fun to be had as cousins were reunited after many years. I like to think I met many new friends and I enjoyed watching old friends spend quality time together.
It was also good for Brady and Adam as they get to see a lot of each other. I feel privileged that I get to spend so much time with Brady, and I know that Adam wants to do the same. Brady loves his daddy so much, that I think Brady's time with his daddy was better than any pool.
Much to my surprise, Brady did not take to the ocean the way he took to the pool. I suppose it can seem rather intimidating and loud compared to a calm pool where water does not rush towards you with a roar. I guess that could seem scary to a baby. Nonetheless, Brady found himself a pool and was so wore out by his introduction to the ocean, that he fell asleep in his float.
After a long 2 weeks abroad the state, Brady, Adam and I were happy to get home.
