even after just getting his toes in, i sort of knew it was not going to end up with him loving it, but he rejected the experience less strongly than before, and i was slowly able to work him out to just past his swim pants (which actually fit tightly enough to work this time!) before we decided he'd been pushed enough for one trip.
he never really started crying, just sort of protest whining, even when we were out of the water and just sitting at the edge of the water.
after a rinse off and some dry clothes, caleb hung out with daddy while i got to really swim for the first time since having the little guy. i had forgotten how fun and relaxing it could be.
and just to convince him that the beach isn't all bad, we finished the trip off with one of his favorite treats, his rice cracker.
all's well that ends well!
