Day #2 in Florida

Day #2 Was a Relaxing Day at the Pool...we woke to cloudy, stormy looking clouds and found that it was a double red flag at the beach. It seems that the Tropical Storm Dolly was sending more problems our way. There was a red tide coming in and the under current was so strong that they didn't even want people walking in the shallows of the beach. The waves were quiet enormous and scary. We watched them from our balcony and decided that we would head all the flag warnings and head to one of the condos two pools!

The pool was great! It was one of the pools that went from shallow to deep...deep being 3 ft. 5 in. Ty loved it. He didn't need a life vest, could walk on his own, and was very much the independent "swimmer". He is very much in the "My do it phase". My put shirt on. My put fip fops on. My cut sandwich. My do everything! So, he loved that he could do everything in this pool. There were sprinklers, games and much more to keep us entertained.

After about 4 hours playing in the water we headed back to the condo for lunch and a nap. Ty didn't take much of a nap and decided that he had been missing some of his favorite toys and just wanted to play quietly with BOZ playing on the t.v. in the back ground.

The whole family playing in the pool! Pop is in the green shirt, Nonna is sitting on the side of the pool, Mommy is sitting in the water, Aunt De is standing and cousing Clayton is the tannest person in the picture! Which...Ty loves cousin Clayton! They are the yin and the yang, the dark and the light, pure opposites, and oh such a fun pair to watch play together.

Here is Ty with his favorite pool toy...the AAAAIGATOR! He was coming to CHOMP Mommy!

He was saying.."Duh...Nuh...Duh...Nuh..." just like the jaws movie! Too Funny!

Chomping Mommy!

Trying to use the AAAAIGATOR as a step to get a ride on Mommy's back!

We went to Reggae J's in Panama Commons (a local strip of restaunts and shops, a lot like Southlake Square with a Florida flare) for a yummy seafood dinner and had ice cream at a local shop (to die for). The Panama Commons Shopping area was a blast. But the best thing about the
commons was the Train Ride! Ty loves trains and there was this little train that rode around the shopping center filled with laughing children. We asked Ty if he wanted to ride and of course he couldn't say no! He was thrilled.

Here is the shiny engine...TOO COOL!

Ty with Daddy and all the cousins...can you tell how excited he was?

The entire cousin clan!

Are we leaving yet?

We're Off!

Jeff said that he was giddy for the entire 10 minute ride. He waved at every passer by and said "Hello Ladies" to a few groups of girls and women. Clayton taught him to say "What's Up" and he parroted that saying quiet a few times on the ride as well! Here are a few videos of the train ride!

All Aboard! They are off! Watch how madly Ty is waving at the crowd.

Ahhhh! It's over! Ty said, "Gan, Gan" to let us know he wanted to go again!

Tune in for Day #3 and our Adventure back to Texas!
