Kiera adamantly refuses to wear a hat at the beach. I have tried every kind of hat we have, I have tried to distract her with toys, ANYTHING, but she will not keep it on...so I spray her entire head with sunscreen :) It's worked so far. The beach itself is a lot of fun...and yet an adventure with Kiera Rita. She loves loves loves the sand. It's always all over everything, which is fine with me. I'm sure she's ingested quite a lot of it as well, but a little roughage never hurt...builds that great immunity she seems to have. I've been taking her on Saturdays when Sean works to a free beach that I 
love on the river in Pt. Pleasant. It's great because it's not crowded, the parking lot is a hop and skip away from the sand and did I mention that it's FREE! So I love it. She usually spends most of her time going from the towel to the chair and back again bringing a ton of sand wherever she is. But yesterday she decided that it would be a fantastic idea to crawl away from our blanket like a little crab. Sigh. I thought I was so lucky, but wasn't for long. She's exhausting...but she was also exhaustED because we went home and she slept for over 2 hours! All that after taking an hour and a half long nap in the morning, so that was the best part! One of my friends sent me a link to a Preschool Rock class for Saturday mornings that I'm also seriously considering. That would be so much fun...for me :) haha...Kiera LOVES music and dancing and making noise with things, so this may be right up her alley...I'm just concerned that it won't hold her interest for 45 minutes and I'll just be chasing her around. But if not this year, then definitely next. I'm off to relax for a few minutes while she's napping this afternoon!
