Pictures

Well, while Richie watches "The Wild" for the second time this morning, it gives me a moment to post some pictures....

Hanging out in the house waiting for the rain to let-up...

Yesterday at the Beach...Bunny hole 2012

Yesterday at Funland

Who knew that Mary Kay sponsored trucks? 

 

Demoted

Today, Richie announced that watching the "Animal Movie" (Disney's "The Wild") is his "favorite thing in the whole world."

We are as deflated as you are, grandparents.

Three years of no TV flushed down the toilet in just two days.

Better

Rain ended early this morning and it warmed up nicely. We spent the morning at the beach, cooled off in the "house" over lunch, and then spent the evening at funland on the boardwalk. Now, it's story time and bedtime.

Rainy

It's rainy in Rehoboth Beach.

Another Quick Update

After 6 month of making my friends and family suffer with my lack of communication and absences, it finally paid off, hopefully. Here is my mom, ML and dad enjoying a fruit basket my wife and mom surprised me with for graduation.

Can't forget Richie! I think this was shortly after his nap.

As a special treat for Richie and ML, we went to Rehoboth Beach for vacation! Here's our first day on the beach.

Richie was clearly more comfortable this year than last year! The water, unfortunately, is still a little prohibitively cold.

Diving into the sand...

Tide on it's way in.

Poor Richie

We took Richie out with my fellow residents for a happy hour dinner. We braved the weather and had a nice time getting home around 730p. Got Richie to bed and then we both collapsed. ML got up a couple of times at Richie's request and finally woke me at 1130p when she found out he had a fever of 104F. She gave him some Tylonol. He thanked her by promptly hurling all over her. Oh, did I mention that he ate like a champ tonight? Once she whisked him into the shower, I started to clean. I must have puked in my mouth at least a half dozen times. I guess all of the margaritas I drank with dinner were not helping me.

We finally got some Tylonol in him and his temp is down to 102.9. He's sleeping with mama in the big bed.

Poor kid.
