Beach conditions were great, especially since a big tide pool formed each morning: perfect for Benji to splash around in without worrying about the big waves (which fascinated him but also terrified him!) I loved the tide pool, too--a wonderful spot for my 36-week-pregnant self to cool off and feel weightless for a while!
We had a good time with Jonathan's parents, grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins. Benji warmed up to them VERY quickly and was our main source of entertainment, as usual!
And then there were the Fourth of July festivities: the annual island parade, snacks and games at noon and a big picnic dinner in the evening, followed by the fireworks.
Another fun Fourth at Figure 8! Now we're back home, and most of my focus has turned to the upcoming arrival of Baby Newman #2...The due date is Aug. 1st, but it really could be any day now! :D
