Mom and dad are here for 2 weeks and these are pictures from two short trips that we took. We just got home from a great day at the beach at Tybee Island and a tour of Fort Pulaski.Ben in front of the Tybee Island Lighthouse
This is Ben's first official beach trip. He went for 4 days when he was 10 mos old, but since Michael and I don't like the beach, we only went out on the sand to take a picture. Today he had a blast playing in the water and getting sand all over his body!
Fort Pulaski was great. They had a cannon firing demonstration that Ben and dad watched from the roof. Even though this was a military fort, it didn't matter to Ben because he is part Pirate and Pirates have cannons too! There were also musket firing demos that were very interesting!
Last week we went to Dauset Trails. Ben found this Brer Rabbit house in one of the gardens. He insisted he get a picture with it.
Dauset Trails has many animals, but most were sleeping since we were there so early in the morning. This coyote was running around so fast that I didn't think that I would ever get a picture of him! All of their animals are native to the area and many are injured and can't be released into the wild.
Ben likes to say certain words and tries every chance he can to fit them into the conversation. He has had a great time sneaking 'pooh' and 'poop' into a sentence or coming up with words that rhyme with them. We have told him that they are 'bathroom words' and we don't say them unless we are in the bathroom. The other day Ben was helping my dad put up the camper. Daddy was unhooking the sewer pipe and placing it in the compartment on the outside of the camper. Ben said, 'Paw Paw, that is a poop pipe.' That's my boy!! 10/18/08
Michael and I were going out tonight and we were breaking the news to Ben. He replied with "It will just be Nanny and me. That is just the way I like it." 10/13/08
Love my Dachshund!!
We have a dachshund named Cadillac. He is 7 years old. I would love to post more pics of him, but he does not like the camera. We try to include him in our pictures when we can.
