Beatrice is not a huge fan of the beach at this stage of her life. We realized this a few weeks ago when we went to the beach for Labor Day weekend with the Harrison/McGarry clan.
First there is the sand. She is very suspicious of the sand. When she sees it, she gives it the stink eye, and when she finally works up enough courage to touch it, it goes straight into her mouth. That is not a surprise, because that is where everything goes these days.
Then, there is the ocean. Beatrice finds it a little cold for her taste and does not particularly prefer it when waves hit her.
And finally, the trifecta of beach nuisances...her little pink hat. Bea HATES wearing hats. She has recently developed the ability to snatch the hat off of her head and hold it over her shoulder, as far away from us as possible. Luckily, she doesn't know how to work velcro yet, so when we can get her to stop wiggling for a few seconds to velcro it, she is out of luck.
