The Beach and Other Adventures.

Well, at least if I make you wait a week between posts, you know you're going to get a lot of pictures. So here's the excessive photographic documentation of the last week or so.

My studly husband wrangling our two kiddos.

(Well, wrangling one, carrying the other.)

That's usually how it goes around here.

Tony wanted me to get one of J holding his first ball--a golf ball.

Tony was so proud.


She really does love her brother.
And it's really a hug, not a choke-hold. Most of the time.


Jude's spot on the beach. Checkin' out the ladies?


Four months old!


Cute tankini. I couldn't help myself.
There will be a day when I say no more two-pieces.
Today just wasn't the day.



This was actually Elizabeth's favorite thing. She is so fearless!
Good thing? Bad thing?




Fun in the sand pit with uncles, aunt, and Daddy.

Really, really, really excited to watch

"Spirit, Stallion of the Cimarron"on YouTube.

I refuse to buy it.

Beautiful girl.

At The Back Porch. Our only eating-out experience.

It's just not as much fun with an almost two-year-old that

prefers to walk on the table rather than sit quietly

and eat like a normal person.

We got a little sandy before dinner. No big deal.

Have I mentioned how hard it is to keep

bows in her hair? Ridiculously hard.

She just reaches up and rips them out and

hands them back to me with a smile.

I am defeated.

This is just a cute baby face. He really doesn't mock me.

Too often.

The cutest swimsuit ever, thanks to Aunt Katie,

who bought this before E was even born.

Only a couple more years until I (and Tony) nix the two-pieces.

Might as well wear the most adorable

ones you can find!

This was the second day. When she started to get sick.

Boo.

He, like a good little man, waited to get sick

until we got home. Thanks Judah!

Sweet baby face.

More beach stories to come. I have to give a stinky baby a bath at present.

Thanks for reading.
