E inflated the pool. Simon's first day at the beach. He LOVES it. He wanted to bring his stroller and he went running on the sand with his stroller (with me helping him over the sand) directly into the water. He spent the afternoon (well, about 1/2 hour or so) running in and out of the water with the stroller, collecting seaweed and everything. Then he played in the sand (wet and dry) with E and the girls (and me). Brought back some sand for the blow-up pool.

Went to the beach a 2nd time. So much warmer and we went earlier (2pm instead of 4pm). Much better! Brought back more sand for the blow-up pool.
Thursday, 8/4
Rained all night. I tried to cover the sand the night before with a bucket, but it didn't do anything. Took the sand out and filled it with water when it stopped raining. Rained all day. Played poker with the girls. (They taught me how). The Croix's came over to visit for the apero so they got to see (meet?) Simon and visit with the girls (say g/b to them). Simon got a little heat-rash of sorts.
