Sand!

Kaitlyn has finally (well actually on Tuesday) gotten over her fear of the sand. My mom pointed out that her fear of sand might have come from her first trip out the Hawaii when she was just 3 months old. I was a little bit neurotic about keeping the sand far far away from her, and that is why she didn't like it.

So here she is my drama queens first trip to the beach this summer. We went to Hukilau and the entire time we were there she would not put her feet down.... if she saw one grain of sand on her she completly flipped out. I only stayed there with her for about 20 minutes until I decided that it was no longer worth it.

Here is Kaitlyn and her cousin Irelyn drying off later that day at Turtle Bay. I thought a nap might have helped her not freak out so much with the sand, but I was wrong. However she did have fun in the water sitting on the boogie board.
And finally on Tuesday Kaitlyn discovered that the sand could be fun. She shoveled the sand into various objects and then she discovered that she could hide her legs, mom's toes, and Aunt Steph's legs with the sand. HURRAY! Although once she is done playing she is ready to have all the sand wiped off.
