Beach!

We FINALLY made it to the beach this year! It's been 8 months since our last visit, and 11 months since the boys have had a chance to play in the sand. It was like it was their very first time, all over again. We had a great trip! The first 4 days were with Mimi and Boop Boop, then Pops and Brad came the last 2 days. 
Leaving Daddy behind is always hard :(


We picked Boop Boop up, and were on our way! We stopped 4 times, but made it to the beach in 5 hours! Cora didn't really like sitting in her carseat for that long, but Boop Boop was great, and talked to her the whole time. 

The boys were so exited to finally be here!!


Cora was too!! Yay!

Her first time to see herself in a mirror!

Morning picutre :)

My most FAVORITE sight in the world. A baby girl, with ruffles up in the air, sound asleep ON the beach!!

Thanks to Mimi (and Boop Boop) I was able to play in the sand with the boys!

She's loving it!

Sweet brothers :)


Love it!


Sea~N~Suds!!!

Oh I loved how excited he got when we went to the ocean! He just rolled around in the sand and waves and laughed and laughed!

Caught Anders in mid air jumping the waves!

Naptime! 

Anders loved going back up to the pool because he got to drink from the "water fountain"!

Little fishes swimming with Mimi

Racing their Sharks!

Great, great vacation!

Bahama Bob's!!!

Jaden has been talking about getting a shark grabber since Christmas. And he finally got it! 

Hunting for crabs! Boop Boop is something else... :D

We caught 8! They were all babies. 

My bed-buddies. There are 2 beds and 2 cots that are empty, and my bed is full! :) I love having all my babies close. (Cora is in the pack n play by us.) This is the first time Anders has ever slept with me! Thank goodness for king size beds!

Story time with Boop Boop!

Eating lunch at The Gulf. Gorgeous scenery and great food!



Sister, falling/posing and smiling away!

Anders pooped in the potty for the first time!!! His prize was a "KittyKat" (KitKat)!! He gave Jaden one, when he asked. I'm surprised :)

I don't know where I fit on this bed, but we all slept through the night!

Ish and her family came to play on Thursday! We had so much fun!



Daddy got there about midnight and snuck in with the boys 

They were SO happy when they woke up!!

Love my babies!

Our favorite restaurant!

Waiting at Bahama Bob's. Got to get a family picture every chance I get! (Obviously)

The whole group

Mimi,Pops and Boop Boop stayed at the condo with Cora, while we went to the arcade and ride gocarts! The boys had so much fun! Always have to get Sully Teeth for a prize!

Girl loves her pacie! 
Looks just like Daddy here. 
And sweet brother loving in the morning. 

Cora's pool spot. (This playpen was what Brad used to play/lay in when he came to the beach. WAY back in the 80's!) 
Jaden and Anders made a new friend, Garret. He was so nice! Everybody enjoyed the pool!

Pops got Anders some froggy goggles like brother. He was so excited about them, that he took a nap in them!

Daddy's first time to give Cora a bath

Playing Pirate Putt-Putt

Can't go to the beach and not get Scoops!!
Look closely... 

You know you're from Tuscaloosa when your family pictures are usually made in Alabama colors! 

We had a great week on the beach with the Crow's!!
