First beach day of the season

My friend, Carly, and I took our kids to the beach last week for a nice walk on the boardwalk and then some play time in the sand. Carly's little girl is almost three months old so she slept most of the time while Johnny did some sleeping on the walk and then proceeded to explore the beach. He really enjoyed walking yards away from our site on the beach and not looking back... which means I had to chase him down over the sand... quite difficult when you're seven months pregnant.

Anyway, the first couple of steps he took on the sand ended in a face-plant right into the sand... which was adorable and pretty painful for him since he kept rubbing sand into his eyes. He still enjoyed the beach experience though.
