Beaches, Birthday and Baby Tommy

Last Friday, the three of us left for the annual Rennie family vacation in Florida (this year it was Seagrove Beach).

Tom and Tommy picked me up from work on Friday afternoon and made it all the way to Baton Rouge, LA around 9:45 that night. Let's just say that Tommy LOVED staying in the hotel and we couldn't get him to settle down enough to go to bed until 11:30!

After eating breakfast at the hotel, we left and made it to Seagrove Beach a little after 3:00. We unpacked, made a grocery store run and ordered in pizza before Grammy blew out her cupcake candle and opened her presents. Tom and I got her The Pioneer Woman cookbook, but she was most excited about her new laptop computer. :)

We had a great time and loved having the option of going into the pool on the days that the seaweed was really bad. There were a couple of stormy days (Sunday, Wednesday and Friday), but we still got in a lot of beach and pool time.

Tommy is definitely an outdoor baby. He loved going outside and really enjoyed sitting beachside, but hated any part of his body touching the sand (must have been the texture).

On the way home, Tommy wanted to take his turn at driving..

and then cuddled with his Elmo the rest of the way.

The week went by WAY too fast! We can't wait for next year's vacation...
