Ahoy! Henry Sails!

On Sunday Kevin, Henry and I drove to Mystic to visit Grammy and Papa on their boat and go for a quick sail. The day was beautiful and we all had a great time. Henry spent much of the "sail" down below with Grammy so he could be free of the life jacket. He enjoyed watching the waves and the clouds out the window and the tipping of the boat certainly made Grammy more nervous than him. Unfortunately we had to head back to the dock fairly early into the sail because Henry was having a hard time getting comfortable in his life jacket. He enjoyed the fresh air and the gentle rocking of the boat when the sails weren't up and he was eventually able to fall asleep. After our quick sail we enjoyed a picnic lunch and then headed home. Overall the trip was successful and we can't wait to do it again!


"I'm Sailing!!"


This made for a great teething ring!


"Papa, it's all clear over there."
Thank you Grammy and Papa for a wonderful day!




Henry in the dreaded life jacket, you can see why he was uncomfortable.
