The picture of her facing the water would be perfect for a post card, I just love it!

2nd day at the Beach
I think we are going to stay in Ocean City FOREVER!! Isabelle eats like a pig here and sleeps so well. Yesterday after her trip to the beach she took a four hour nap, and for breakfast that morning she had oatmeal, a piece of bacon, a banana, and then helped Mommy and Daddy eat some of their sandwiches. I was impressed!!
Of course we went to the beach today and Isabelle had a blast playing in the sand. She even got in the water a little, but the water was still freezing! We also saw a ton of dolphins, it was amazing!!

If you click on the Ocean pick you can see 4-5 dolphin fins. (I do not have my computer so I have way of editing the picture.)

Our trip to the Boardwalk
We took Miss Isabelle down to the boardwalk last night to ride all of the rides. She had a lot of fun!! She rode on the boats, on the race car, 2 carousels and the motorcycles and her least favorite was a ride called "The Whip". She hated "The Whip", every time it came to the corner it whipped around and scared Isabelle to death. Poor little girl, by the end of the ride she was crying and wanting off!
On the Boat--- Pop Pop and Isabelle riding on one of the oldest carousels in the world (made in 1902)
The Whip- the 2nd picture is very blurry but only because it whipped my baby so fast my camera couldn't keep up.. Poor girl
Playing games on the boardwalk
Ringing the bell on the firetruck ride, and kissing the pirate (what a flirt)
Riding the motorcycles, and watching the lights on the back of the race car
Dad fed her to the lion and then tried saving her....

First Day at the Beach
Last year Isabelle hated the beach and the sand, but this year I had a plan. We got Isabelle a sandbox for the house in order to get ready for the beach, and she loves it now! She was so excited to see this HUGE sandbox! She would stop every couple of steps and start shoveling before we could even get to our spot on the beach.
She had a great time having Mom-Mom make sand cakes, and then smashing them. The water was absolutely freezing so we did not get in, but the sand was tons of fun.
It was a little windy so Aunt Jackie was all covered up!
The ladies doing their daily crossword on the beach.

Can you bring bullets on a Plane?
So the funniest thing happened while Dave and Sandy were going through security at the airport. Dave runs his carry on through the scanner and the TSA asks to search his bag. Maybe asking is not the right word, they demanded. So the take all the contents out and search the bag, but find nothing. They run the bag back through the scanner empty but are apparently a little suspicious. After dumping out his bag 4 times and running his bag back through a couple dozen times the head of the security comes over and pulls something out of his bag. They show the suspicious item to Dave Sr. and to his surprise (allegedly) it is a magazine full of hollow point bullets!!! LOL.. Can you believe it??
The story goes that Dave's brother in law, Brandon, is a police officer. Well Brandon and Sr. switched luggage bags a couple of years ago and I guess Brandon left it in the bag. Funny thing is that Sr. has flown with this bag (checked of course) for at least three years now, and he just now finally found it. Surprisingly enough it does not matter to the TSA if the bullets or your or not, it is your bag.. LOL So Dave had to fill out an incident report and they are reporting it to the TSA. They asked him if he had a concealed handgun license, he said no and the guard told him good because it would be revolked if he did. They also mentioned that if he would have had the gun that he would have not been flying today. Apparently TSA will be sending him some sort of paper work, or something in regards to the matter. I guess they take this stuff pretty seriously, so fo future reference NO BULLETS ON A PLANE.
I think now Dave and I will have to start arriving at the airport 30-45 minutes earlier than normal, seeing as how he will now require a cavaity serarch before flying (being that his name sake has been blacklilsted with the TSA). Dave Jr. and I are now trying to figure out what we can sneak in his bag for the flight back, that is if they let him fly back =)

Finally on Vacation
We made it to the ocean but what an eventful day. We had to wake up at 4:30 this morning to make our 6:30 flight, but we made it successfully. The first thing Isabelle said when we pulled up to the airport was, "we're at the Ocean, yeah!" so I had to explain to her that we were not there yet. She threw a fit at the terminal because we had to check her stroller, you all should know by now (through other posts) how emotionally attached she is to that stroller. We get on the airplane, she puts on her seatbelt and says, "ok, ready lets go in the sky". As soon as we finally took of she yelled, "Look at me, I am flyyyiiinnngg. This is cool!". I love having a toddler, she is just a laugh a minute.
On her last trip to Baltimore she slept the entire flight there so I was hoping for a repeat, especially seeing as how she had to get up so early that morning. No such luck, but luckily even thought she was awake and tired she did really well. Until.... She lets out a scream about 2.5 hours into the flight, I tell her not to scream on the plane and she shakes her head and says "I'm going crazy, let me out". At that point I knew I was pushing it and so I took her out for a little break!
After our flight finally landed we had a 2.5 hour wait for Dave's parents to get there, we were sharing a rental car. BWI has the neatest little observatory deck that was perfect for Isabelle. They had a childs play area a plane, luggage carrier and a fuel tanker. You could watch the planes land, and learn about the inner workings of a plane and how the operate. So here they are the first pictures of the vacation.
We are now at the Ocean, Isabelle is in bed and Dave and I are winding down to prepare for our two weeks of NOTHING! Yes, I cannot hardly wait... I will keep you all posted.
