Every year GM shuts down the week of July 4th. This year we decided to head to South Padre with a 2 year old and a 9 week old. We are brave souls.
It ended up being the best vacation ever!
Loaded up and hitting the road!
Townes was super happy to be going to the beach for the first time!
Vera and Arby are originally from Los Fresnos and they spend the week of July 4th in South Padre every year. We stopped in Los Fresnos to pick up a few groceries and look who we ran into!
Watching the sunrise while listening to the waves in the background.
We had the prettiest little walk to get to the beach from our condo.
We brought many of Candor's sand trucks and he had so much fun playing with them at the beach.
He LOVED making sand angels.
Arby and Vera also joined us to swim a few times!

We looked online at many different condos and eventually found one with a Dory room! Candor loves Dory so we knew we had to get it! Before the trip we showed him pictures of his Dory room and I have never seen Candor so excited to finally see it in person. He was also super pumped that it had a TV in his room.
Attached to Candor's Dory bedroom was a bathroom. Candor claimed this bathroom as his own. By the end of the trip he would tell me he had to go to the bathroom. He would then go in, shut the door, pull down his shorts, take off his diaper, throw it in the trash, grab tissue and wipe himself. He would do this immediately after peeing in his diaper.
We spent our days relaxing, watching movies, going to the pool, the beach, eating and just spending time together.

Townes loved napping at the beach.
We also spent many hours at the pool. Townes got to get in the swimming pool for the first time!
When Townes was not swimming he loved sitting in his chair watching Candor swim.
Todd cooked us several meals..
We also went out to eat a couple of times.
Todd and I enjoyed one meal 'alone' as Candor and Townes were passed our in the stroller....
well......maybe we enjoyed half of the meal and then this one woke up and wanted some fries!
We went to a sea turtle sanctuary one day.
We got to take a few family pics!
Candor and Townes missed Uncle Florio while we were gone so they bought him a shirt. It looks good on him....I think.
Until next time South Padre!
