Ella went on her first boat excursion today and what a trooper! I put her new life jacket on her and let her walk around in it for a bit so she'd get used to it. I was so relieved when she actually liked it and sported it around the house for a while before leaving. We left after breakfast around 9:30am.
Once she got back in the boat after swimming she was much more comfortable and started to walk around some. She was pretty skeptical of the whole situation for a long while after getting onto the boat. She was also not very fond of getting into the water at first, but she soon got over that and had the greatest time floatin' around and watching people around us play.
Her MOST favorite place to be was in the driver's seat if Kevin or I were driving. She actually got mad at me once because I wouldn't let go of the throttle so SHE could control it. I think we might be creating a little boat snob...
Anywho, we docked at Hula Hut around 3pm (no nap or formal meal since breakfast, mind you), ate some lunch and then she and I took of to go home and catch a late nap. She was so tired she was passed out in the car seat before I even drove away from the parking lot. This is gonna be a good summer :)
