Babies Make Four: Beach, Day 2!

Man, I've forgotten how hot Georgia can be. While everyone in NC is posting pictures wearing fleece and how it finally feels like Fall, people are still going swimming in the ocean down here and running around in bathing suits and flip flops. It kind of blows my mind what "fall" is like down here. A perpetual summer. In that sense, I'll be glad to get back to the mountains tomorrow!

Even though it was burning hot yesterday, it was a beautiful day down here. Instead of packing all of the baby's stuff up to stay at the beach, we opted for just a walk. The water still feels awesome, even if it's just sticking our toes in the water. I carried Luke and the sounds of the ocean and us walking put him straight to sleep. He seems to be unimpressed with it all but I'm sure next year he'll love it.

We ate lunch at Iguanas where we had some of the best shrimp ever. I cleaned my plate before Dillon was even done eating! We sat Luke at the table in his carseat and he was so jealous of all the food we were eating. He would smack his lips and reach out to eat some shrimp. Poor baby, he can't have that for another year or so...

We walked around the town again and came back to the house to relax. Mom and I walked down the street to the butterfly garden where they've planted all sorts of things to attract the butterflies. I think it may have been too hot for them because we only saw a few.

Last night, Dillon and I went on our first date since the baby's been born! We went to Coastal Kitchen, where we ate on our honeymoon. The food was delicious and the restaurant has an awesome atmosphere with pretty views. We had good conversation that didn't completely revolve around the baby (we talked about him a little!) and we talked about how it was nice to not eat in shifts or come back to a cold plate, but in the end agreed that we missed having him with us.

Today's our last day here and of course it's raining and muggy. We were going to go to the beach but I don't know if that'll be much of an option. No plans on the horizon is all right with me.
