Kellen's First Beach Trip

This weekend we braved the wind and rain and ventured over to the coast for the first time with Kellen. Let me tell you, we've aleady discovered that our house is suddenly too small with one small infant and all the gear they come with - but packing up for a short weekend away is quite a production! The boy needs a lot of things - portable crib, activity mat, diapers, wipes, plenty of changes of clothes, baby bjorn, hats, sound machine, boppy, books...the list goes on! There was just enough room in the car for us to each have a small bag and for us all to fit in. Anyway, we made it down for a weekend of warm fires, relaxing on the couch, one rainy walk to the coffee shop and a quick jaunt on the beach in the 10 minutes of sunny (make that non-rainy) weather while we were there. We hope there will be many more beach weekends to come this year!
Here are some pictures of our weekend:
