From there we went to the room and changed the boys into their suits. Jason had mixed feelings about the ocean for the first time. He was fascinated, but wasn't quite sure about the very cold water, understandably. He did like the sand and shells, but I think it was a bit too chilly and windy for him, so he spent some time wrapped up in a blanket on his mom-mom's lap. Poor kid was pretty sleepy too. Tyler has become much more comfortable in the water though, jumping over waves and tumbling around. Apparently I should have worn a suit, because I ended up pretty drenched.
After some time on the beach we went back to the room to get cleaned up. Tyler had planned on a bath, but it turns out they only had a big shower. He has always been afraid of showers, so I told him I'd show him how to just clean off his legs. By the time he was cleaning off his arms I informed him that he was in fact "showering". Apparently that's all he needed to overcome that fear and he quickly put his head in and took a real shower. He was very proud of himself, and I have an absolutely adorable video of him doing the hokey pokey during his first ever shower.
After getting into some dry (and warmer) clothes, we were off to the Steel Pier for some rides. Tyler did some of his favorite, such as this boat ride.
Meanwhile Jason just enjoyed being out in the beautiful air, seeing the lights, and hanging with the fam.
Tyler's favorite ride was the roller coaster. It's not a great picture, but he's the one in the back with his hands up.
This is him imitating exactly how one holds up their arms during a roller coaster. LOL.
Afterwards we got PJs on and left for home. Both boys were asleep before our arrival. Gotta love it.
