The Boy of Summer





This is Gabriel's first time at the beach. He was so excited
when he got to experience sand underneath and between his little feet and toes for the first time. Then he was hesitant as he took in the wide open ocean as he got closer to it. He just stood there staring out. We walked him to the water and you can see him running from the waves. He really liked to stand and experience the water rushing over his legs and feet as it went back out to sea. His Uncle Ian had to "save" him a few times since the current back out to sea was pretty strong. The video shows Gabriel figuring out the power of the ebbing tide. Gabriel also had another first sensation...sand in his diaper.

Fun! I know that beach. Were they serving adult beverages on the deck?

I'm glad you were able to take him out for a day at the beach.
