Tomorrow, Emry turns one year old. While I try to process this fact, a hit of Mama nostalgia is putting me in a photo kind of mood. So I’m finally getting around to posting pictures of Emry’s first beach experiences, way back in July when he was only a wee 8-month-old (sniff).

Did you know that beach rocks make excellent teething toys?

Of course, sand tastes pretty yummy on its own.

Right?

What?

Now let’s not even get me started on seaweed.

Seaweed is delish.

What’s not to love about a salty sea vegetable?

This digging in the sand stuff sure is great.

Kinda tires a baby out.

Mama’s obsessed with my feet. You know how she is.
