Bahama Mama

What better way to kick off the month of August than a trip to the Bahamas!  We spent an amazing week with great friends on an incredible beach.  Marin loved swimming in the pool at the hotel and beach house, but we had to do some major coaxing to get her in the ocean.  Once we figured out that the SAND was freaking her out, we were good to go….carry the child from the house and place her gently in the water.  Ah, the Carribean Waters aren’t so bad after all!

Get a grip!

Only a teacher could appreciate the grip that Marin has on her pencil!  Her favorite activity right now is writing her favorite letters in her notebook….M, O, and an occasional L.  She’s also pretty zippy at drawing ‘cirsees’ (circles).
