Pawley's Island

Today we headed to pawley's island and had a blast!!! Iris really enjoyed herself and spent hours just walking, picking up sea shells and running through the water!!!

We found tons of star fish, hermit crabs, really big regular crabs, jelly fish, tons of shells! She enjoyed walking all over with her dad and grampy Steve!! I think pawley's was her favorite beach just like dadda!

Riding the carousel

She really wasn't a fan of it at all!

Fun at Johnny rockets!

She loved the waves...a little

Iris went out in the waves with us a few times and really seemed to enjoy it! They would "jump" when a big wave would come and watch the "bubbles" after one hit! She liked it as long as she didn't get splashed!!!

Our little gilby!!!! =)

Iris wants to be just like dad!

Taking a ride

Iris loves playing in the sand!

Getting brave!

She would get in but run when a wave would come!

I love these pictures!!!

Catching shells

Today started out cloudy but then the sun came out and made for a great day at the beach! Iris is getting braver and really enjoyed being in the water more today!!! We played until 3ish then we showered and headed to bearfoot landing to shop and ate at johnny rockets! Iris loved dancing to the music and having "bites" of my milkshake!

Ice cream fun!

Well it continued to rain the rest of the day! Boo! Iris napped for over 3 hrs and then we had dinner and hit up the shops! We headed to the pier for ice cream! Iris couldn't keep up with it all!

Iris loves shells

A different shark encounter!

S.H.A.R.K!!!!

2 fisherman caught these 2 baby sharks this morning right by where we were playing! Yikes!!! Not going to swim today haha. They were about 1.5 feet long!

Back to digging!

It's been a rainy day! We woke up to rain then it stopped for a few hours so we could play then started back up around lunch time! It's been a relaxing afternoon!

Good day!!!

Our view this morning!

The day ended with story time with grampy Steve!

My little love!

Look at these big trees mom!

I will take any of these, please!

Walking along the water's edge

A day spent at charleston

Rain was predicted today so we thought it was a good day to head to charleston! It was a lot of fun! We took the trolley all over which Iris seemed a little uneasy about. She was not in her car seat and ppl were standing! But she held on tight and waved to everyone!!

We shopped at the city market where I bought a pair of earrings from my favorite jewelry booth. I buy a piece every time we come and I cherish those pieces =).

We then had lunch at the crab shack where Doug and I had crab cakes, Grammy had a hamburger an grampy had a shrimp sandwich. Iris had mac'n cheese and a little off everyone's plate! She especially loved grammy's pickle!!

After lunch we walked down to the water's edge and the battery! Iris finally passed out and everyone knows this is a first for iris!!! She never passes out in her stroller =)

The weather was actually pretty nice! It was overcast which helped with the heat but super humid! Down by the battery, it was really breezy!

After walking all over, we decided to take the trolly back to the visitor center! Just as the trolly was picking us up, it started pouring!!!! It arrived just in time!

We drove back to our condo and had dinner, iris played an had a bath and is now asleep!

It was a great day!!!

Sassy girl is having a blast!!

Family fun!

Beach fun!!

We made it to the beach!!!!!!! We left Friday night just before 9pm and arrived at the beach around 11 am! We made great timing and had a few hours to stall =). We played on the beach and walked garden city's pier. Finally around 3:45pm we checked in and unloaded 2 cars full!!!!

Today we played on the beach all day and Iris had a blast!!!!!! She didn't take her morning nap so around 2pm we came inside and she passed out while I nursed her!!! She was so sleepy!!! 2.5 hrs later, she was ready for more beach fun and enjoyed playing in the sand with dad and grampy Steve!!! She likes getting in the water a little but doesn't like being knocked over! She prefers her little pools her dad builds her!!!

It was a great first day at the beach!!!

Lovers!
