Izzie's First Time in the Ocean

As a family vacation/reunion type, we met up with my parents and grandparents in Maui. It was 5 days of a lot of relaxing and fun. It was great having my family there - we had a lot of catch-up time and of course they were more than willing to watch Izzie for me and Al so we can go out on our own time to time.

One of the biggest events on our trip was we dunked Izzie in the ocean for the first time. In general, whenever Izzie does something new, she holds back a little bit. She's curious, but she take the time to take it all in and get used to it first.



After awhile Izzie just chilled and figured out the ocean was like one big salty (and a bit cold) bathtub, and she got into it. Here she is with my dad:


And here some family footprints. Al kept saying how my print sucked - but its not easy making a nice footprint and trying to make a footprint of your 18 pound baby:

I was watching Izzie's beach video and Parsnip (my puppy) jumped up on the couch and started watching, too! She was nearly nosing the screen and cocking her head to listen to the ocean! I don't know if she liked it, though...snip's first beach trip wasn't as successful as yours :)

Beautiful!! How fun that Izzie is less than a year old, and she's already been to Hawaii! My husband is 33 and has never been.
