Beach agony and then bliss

Amy always has to put her finger in whatever lotion or goop I put on my hand to rub on her, and then always puts her finger in her mouth and/or elsewhere on her face or head. Well today she did a bull's eye shot with the sunscreen into her eyes. And since she doesn't let me come near her face.... there was no washing it or rinsing it out of her eyes. Therefore it made for a very unpleasant start to the morning walk, and thus these miserable photos.




















But then things turned around after she napped in the stroller. Daddy met us and we all enjoyed the oceanfront very much. Some kids cry when they get near the water. Amy cries when I take her away from the water. After we had a dreamy dip in the ocean, we ate lunch al fresco at the Hilton, and listened to the kickin' band, Dreams. The last photo makes me laugh out loud. Amy's pigtail gives me a Groucho Marx look.
