Yesterday was a big one here at the House of Carrigan. Theo's first boat ride and trip to the sandbar. Being that his nursery has a general nautical theme, and the fact that he owns more things with anchors on them than the average baby - it was only a matter of time before we got this babe his sea legs. Going out on the boat has been one of my family's favorite pastimes since before I can remember. Back when we lived in Minnesota my parents had a boat even though we would only be able to use it for probably 8 weekends out of the entire year. Trust me when I say that every weekend back in those days was spent out on the lake, whether we wanted to or not. Since moving to south florida and "adopting" the FL lifestyle many of our weekends are also spent out on the water - only now the ocean is right around the corner and the views along the intracoastal waterway are much nicer.
After napping for the majority of the 20 minute ride out to the sandbar Theo seemed to enjoy hanging out on the boat in his little front shade tent and taking a walk out to the sandbar with John and me. Definitely a fun day had by all. It's weekend days like these that are a great reminder to me of the amazingly beautiful place in which we get to call home. Here are some of my favorite pictures from yesterday.
What are some of your favorite weekend pastimes? Is boating up there? Oh, and before I forget - does anyone have any suggestions for keeping baby sunglasses on a baby? Or hats for that matter!?
