It's starting to heat up around town. Much like I would forget just how cold the winters got in Wisconsin, I find myself forgetting how hot Texas summers are. Joseph and I still think we'd rather live through a hot summer than a cold winter.
We started going to beach again with Ashton this month. We love that the gulf is just 20 minutes away. Several friends and their kids joined us, which makes it more enjoyable. I was proud of Ashton for facing her fears of the waves and actually getting wet. She doesn't like the sound of the waves and gets scared. It sounds too much like a lawn mower, weed whacker, loud truck, plane, blow dryer, or anything else loud. But by the end of the first day at the beach, she would go in the water with me for about 5-10 minutes before wanting to go back to shore. When we went back this weekend, she did even better and enjoyed the waves again. Ashton spends most of her time at the beach playing in the sand, begging snacks off other parents, pointing out the ice cream truck and asking for "Cream," as well as chasing the birds around. We are hoping to make the beach a more regular thing and it also is a great way to wear Ashton out so she takes a long nap afterwards!
