We took him to the beach for a short period, just to stick his feet in the water and let him feel the sand on his feet. I didn't want to actually sit him in the sand since I know that he would immediately try to eat it and then rub his eyes or something. He didn't cry, but he was definitely a little scared when the waves came up to him.
He's a lot of fun and very smiley and laughy. He's also a total ham when the camera comes out - case in point: on our way to the Natty Green's pub run last night I was trying to take a picture of his hair. Daycare had fashioned it into a fohawk and it was so cute. "Logan, look at me."
What a smile.
To answer a friend's question - yes, he definitely cries. I suppose I could take some pictures of him crying instead of posting all these - but believe me, he can get unhappy, too. Like when I change his diaper in the morning (seriously, you want to continue to sit in a bunch of pee and poop?) We're also going back and forth with what to do in the early morning when he'll start crying. One of us has usually jumped up to get him and feed him, but we're realizing that he's not eating a whole lot and he's probably not all that hungry. To cry it out or not - and if you do any research you'll quickly find that there are a lot of strong opinions out there and advice is all over the place. Last night he cried right around 3am but we didn't jump up and he went back to sleep until 7am after crying for less than 5min. I doubt that's always going to happen but it was nice.
I'm racing this weekend at the Lake Logan sprint triathlon. While on vacation I was able to run a bit and do 2 short swims, but overall training has been pretty half hazard the past couple of weeks so it should be interesting to see how I feel.
