We went away this weekend with all my college girls and families for a weekend at a beach house in Salishan. It was so much fun! The first 2 days were great. Henry got his first glimpse of the ocean and loved it. He was amazed with the giant "tubby"! He also loved having his new friend Bennett to play with. He and Halle were very into Bennett and loved to try and take care of him since he is a whopping 8 months younger..ha! Bennett kept dropping his milk off the highchair and Henry diligently kept giving it back to him...much like a game I have played with Henry. I also had such a great time seeing my girls. They really are an amazing bunch. On day 3 Henry woke up and started throwing up! This has been my biggest fear as a Mom. I hate vomit and I have a weak stomach. At first look I started pacing and almost threw up myself, thank goodness for Bill, but I quickly snapped into action to help our little love. It was a long day. Henry took 5 baths and the carpet was scrubbed numerous times. To cap off the day everyone was hanging out before dinner having a nice time and Henry once again vomited everywhere...on me, the carpet, toys and Kate's new hat! Did I mention vomit is hard to get out of wool!!! Instead of being upset or grossed out I watched each of my friends jump into action. Scrubbing the carpet, starting laundry, hugging me and not getting upset even a bit about a ruined hat. These girls were my co moms and it made me realize how important it is to have friends like these in my life. The ones who stick around when its hard are the good ones! Below are some pictures from the beach.
