We took two beach trips this past month. The first trip was on December 31st. Tracy was picking up one of his professors from LAX, so we made it a day. We went to the beach, called Dockweiler State Beach, which is right by LAX. James went right up to the water and got his feet wet. He had only done that a few times before. Most of the time he's been too afraid of getting wet.
Here are the pictures from that day:
Running from the waves!
I think he was pointing to a bird or maybe to a truck on the road.
He loves to follow Daddy.

Telling me to take my shoes off and get my feet wet.

Our second trip this month was this past weekend, January 25. We took the Metrolink to Oceanside. Played on the beach, had shrimp tacos from the Tin Fish and malts from Ruby's. There was a storm off shore somewhere causing large waves, so lots of surfers were out. James actually ran right up to the water on his own, first time he didn't wait for one of us to come with him. It was a fun beach day.
Waiting for the train.
He kept filling his bucket up with water.
Daddy helping him fill his bucket.
Beautiful day.
We found a total of 3 Sand Dollars and
some other shells we haven't seen on the beach before.
Sometimes the waves were strong enough to knock James down.
A nice big wave!
Such a cute picture of James holding onto his daddy
because a big wave is coming.
One of the times he ran back to fill up his bucket, he had to stop to do something else.

Who's this cutie at the beach?
One can not have enough ocean pictures. ;)
My turn to play with James.
Surfer!

There was this guy on the pier blowing giant bubbles.
If you paid him a certain amount (we didn't find out how much), then you could have a turn.

We sure do love the beach and feel lucky to live so close to the ocean!
