Day 155

Colton woke up (at 8 AM...we must have worn baboo out the night before) in beautiful Ocracoke. After a morning bottle with mom on the balcony, he let mom and dad go to breakfast at the Pony Island Restaurant. While there, he really enjoyed playing with all the creamers and jellies (oh yes, dining out with Colton is certainly becoming more exciting!). With breakfast complete, it was off to the beach for the day. Ocracoke's beach is beautiful, especially with the wind blowing and slightly overcast skies. Colton loved hanging out, eating seaweed and sand, and playing in the water with mom and dad. With dad's beach patience running thin, Colton left the beach and did some island shopping before going back to the hotel for a nap. At night, Colton went back to Howard's Pub's deck for the view and drinks before going to the Back Porch for a wonderful dinner. Although Colton was fighting sleep the whole time, he was quite the hit at the restaurant, especially later when he ran into his cousin Mary and a flock of women who were eager to get their hands on him! With all that excitement, Colton was ready for bed, so mom and dad headed back to the hotel and put baby boy to bed for the night:)
