Relaxing on the sand…

Nicholas! That’s no milk powder honey! Uh-uh! Too late! Ewwww! He just ate a handful of sand! Poor baby! It’s a relief that he didn’t like the taste of it and just spit it all out! :)

Well, it was a beautiful Sunday and my sisters and I decided to go to the beach (Nico’s Grandparents were out of town then) to relax and enjoy the sun, the sand and the cool water.

So we left home at about 5:00 o’clock in the morning when the sun is just about to rise. We were at the beach for just 3 hours or so because it starts to get hot and we never really planned to stay long anyways — we only brought breakfast with us.

Well, it was great though. Bonding time for me and Nicholas and an opportunity for my angel to practice his swimming skills again, especially with the fact that he loves the water and have been moving his arms and legs as if he’s really swimming. Shucks! He was brave too! He wouldn’t even let me hold him! It was a short but fun family bonding and we will be doing it again next time, especially now that the beach is just a couple of hundred meters from our new home…

Nico’s First Attempt on Swimming :)

Yeah, he attempted to swim alright but only with his feet hahaha! My baby boy doesn’t know how to deal with the volume of water using his hands :)

We were at Seagull Beach Resort last Sunday to celebrate my brother-in-law’s and niece’s birthday. The view was great and the water was cool. Nico was rather taken with the sand that he can’t keep his feet from playing with it. Guess it felt like a massage :)

We took a swim while his Tita Floricel took pictures of us (All pictures can be seen here). Nico enjoys his bath everyday and so it is not a surprise that he enjoys the idea of plunging into a wider “bathtub” hehehe.  I guess everyone of us were born with the ability to swim (too bad that I wasn’t able to develop this ability) because I was amazed when Nico started to kick his feet as if he was swimming. Hmmmm…. maybe I should start planning his enrollment to a swimming program :)

I love the swimming session with my little angel and would have wanted to do it again if only Nico didn’t fell asleep soon after I gave him his “shower” and fed him. I guess my poor darling got tired of “swimming” :( Well, there will be more swimming escapades to come and I’ll make sure my little darling enjoys every second of it.
