Beach Bums

Once we got to Myrtle Beach on Saturday, there was no slowing down. We headed out to the Opry for a show and snapped a few pics.



















Twins














Get that camera out of my face














The next day started with a walk with Nanny














And ended with a cut throat game of Uno, dominated by Senor Kearney















Of course, it wasn't all old lady walks and Uno, we went to the beach too. Maddox did not like it at first. He clung to whomever was holding him and did not want to be put down.

























































Eventually, he played in his cabana and even got in his indoor pool.














Back at the house, he wanted to be in his walker constantly and was all over the place.














The ice cream man came and Maddox couldn't decide what he wanted.














We chose the fruitcicle but Maddox wasn't so sure














Eventually, he gave it a try














Thinking...














Ok, I'll eat that














Maddox preparing for his morning stroll on the beach














Mid-week we went to the aquarium. Maddox wasn't that into it but did check out some of the fish.










































Sharks!














Maddox hanging out in the mouth of a shark














Leaving the aquarium














Back on the beach, Maddox really started warming up to the sand and water.




























Hangin with Grammy














and the boys














going for a stroll with mom



















One more trip to the opry














Then back to the beach where he got more adventurous























































































































Maddox in action, showing off his clapping skills and what he does after a touchdown.


Chillin in his pool




























Time to check out the water




























Later at dinner, Maddox and I were tricked into wearing the same outfit.














The girls were still all over us though














One more day at the beach










































You're in my seat!














much better




























On the last night we went over to the Olive's house for dinner and Maddox decided to take some steps by himself. Everyone was so excited that we made him do it again. He had no idea what was going on but sure didn't like being left to stumble and fall after a few steps. We didn't catch any on camera but we made sure to take pics with our hosts.














One final pic with the whole group before the long trip home.
