1st day at the beach

the cold pool

dad making a castle with Arden

at the nice Condo

So we left Wednesday night at 2am. I was exhausted because I did not get in bed before 1 am because I wanted a semi-clean house when i get home. I cleaned tub and shower and toilets and then passed out. I was able to sleep for about 4 hours in car until Arden woke up saying she needed to go potty. We were all up from 6:15 till 9:30 when we got here. We ran through McDonalds because Arden could already see the beach and was asking to go to it. The condo is awesome!!! So nice and close to everything. I thought Matt would sleep because he had driven all night but he went to beach with us. They played in sand for just about 30 min and then Arden was saying she wanted to clean off. She would not get in the ocean and it was cold. So we went back to the pool and she swam forever. The sun does not hit the pool till about noon so we refered to it as the cold pool. Arden loves the cold pool but mom is trying to keep her in this morning so i don't have to be in the cold pool for so long with no sun. I mean, I need to get a little tan while here too. We all went in for a nap about 1pm and Arden and Matt slept till 6. We were starved and had not been to grocery so we went strait to dinner but had a wait. Margaritaville is 2 min away from out hotel. Only time I wish i wasn't pregnant. A margarita sounded good. Matt ordered a cheeseburger in paradise for me. It was so good but I was so full!!! I thought we would walk around after dinner but Arden was so tired. She was saying --can we please go to our room. Please!! I didn't realize how late it was--it was 8:30pm (9:30 Chattanooga time). We stopped by target so we would have some lunch food today. Slept great last night and hoping that we can stall Arden from the cold pool for a little while. She already has her inter-tube over over her pajamas.
