the beach.

what's not to love about the beach? every one in our family loves it. but we all love it for different reasons. this trip neither one of a kids actually went in the water. avery just wants to run. literally, just run back and forth. blake just wants to dig and loves getting messy. although, he did enjoy running and chasing the ball. mark likes to collect hermit crabs. and me. well, i'd really just like to lay there in the water (and take pictures). i admit i see pictures of kids running out of the ocean and looking so happy and care free and want my kids to do the same. but, that's just not them or their personality. these photos are very true to the way they are. i love the beach and i love them even more! 

yes, we had a swimsuit change because those swim diapers just don't really stand the test when it comes to poo. but, we're always prepared! :)

he did enjoy some yoga beachside.

but mainly stuck to digging in the sand. 

avery was quite the poser when i asked to take her picture. sassy much?

it's always nice to sit and have snacks too under the tent! 

we met some sweet friends too this trip! their daughter loved the water and running in and out of the ocean! her and blake are the same age!


she is also pregnant and due in october so these two babies will be even closer in age! she told me she would be wearing a bikini. guess, i can cross wearing a bikini to the beach off my pregnancy bucket list! sorry if you were just blinded! :)
