The Cerny Family Blog: Onto Annapolis and Ocean City!

July 19- 26, 2009

Next, we made our way over to Maryland to visit with our family there. We started our week off with a old fashioned American BBQ with hamburgers & hot dogs at my parents house. We had the special treat of having Noah's great grandparents, the Prices, travel up from Texas to meet their new great grandchildren. We also had a surprise visitor when Aunt Vicki (also from Texas) arrived from the airport! The cousins and aunts and uncles all came over to visit with us including all of the Lambden's, the Petruccy's, the Striegel's, the Norman's(all the way from Florida), Auntie Carol, and Aunt Linda. We really enjoyed relaxing with everyone on a lovely Sunday afternoon.

Next stop...... Ocean City

We decided to have a few days relaxing at the beach so we all caravan'd it down the shore hon'! We were looking forward to playing with Noah in the sand and pool. Unfortunately it took a little while for Noah to 'warm up' to the 'cold' pool water and he wasn't so excited about the gritty sand.

Our first morning there we woke up to meet our new neighbors, porpoises frolicking in the ocean.

Noah cuddles up with his Grandma Price getting ready to take a nap with his favorite 'blankie'.

Grandpa & Grandma Price instructing Noah on how to put together his new Johnny Jumper.

" Yeah! It works Dad! I am really good at putting things together. Look how high I can jump!"

Finally, we hit the baby pool!

"Mmmmm....this whale is good :-) "

" Check out my new beach ball that my dad bought me....I picked it up in the bin at the grocery store :-)"

The long awaited play date for Noah & Jacob. At 7 1/2 & 6 1/2 months respectively they even shared toys with each other!

Grandpa feeding Noah - looks like he's helping him learn how to hold his own bottle - Bravo Grandpa!

After a while, Noah warmed up to his Great Grandmom Price and sat on her lap. He really liked to touch her face and hands when he was close to her.

The beachcombers going for a walk after dinner. We hadn't prepared ourselves for the flood that would take over the beach during our walk and all ended up getting our pants soaked from the rising tide.
