A Day at the Beach

In October, (yes, I really am that behind) when we went to Disneyland, we decided to spend a day at the beach.  Robby was really excited to go and Zoe is such a water bug that we knew she would love it.  As soon as we got to the beach, Robby was gone.  He was fearless.  He had a blast playing in the ocean, even though it was pretty cold, and digging in the sand.  He looked for shells with Kirk and really had a great time.

Zoe on the other hand, was miserable.  She was terrified of the whole experience.  Every time a wave would crash, no matter how far away from the water she was, she would cry.  She actually liked to play in the water, until she heard a wave.  She liked to play in the sand, until she heard a wave.  She really liked chasing the birds, until she heard a wave.  Unfortunately, it being the ocean and all, there were a lot of waves.  Needless to say, Kirk and I spent most of our beach trip holding Zoe, trying to comfort her.

It wasn't quite the day at the beach I had planned.  We ended up only staying for about an hour.  We couldn't put Zoe through much more than that.  Robby had a blast though, so it was all worth it.  And I did manage to get some cute pictures.
