Fun at the Beach

This was a couple weeks ago and yes, believe it or not, it was actually hot that day! A very "go get 'em" friend of mine asked if we wanted to go to the beach with a picnic lunch. Sometimes I'm tempted to just stay home even when something sounds like fun, just because it's easier with two kids. But I went and we had a lovely time. Now she was the one with the idea to grill brats over a little camping grill! I was all for packing sandwiches, but if she wanted to do the work, well, hey, I'd eat it!:)
The children had a great time in the water and in the sand as well as on the cool playground right next to the beach. I never made it past my calves in the water, by the time we had lunch, I fed Carys, and then tried to get her to go to sleep, which took awhile! But it was a good time - something I'd only do with another person along!:)

Friends and Beaches

We met some friends at the beach yesterday. We hadn't seen each other since school finished, so it was great to get together and catch up!
Caedmon usually loves other children, but Morgan brought beach toys and he was all about them! And poor little Morgan just wanted to be with her mommy, whom she hadn't seen all day. So, I guess it was a "playdate" for the mommies. And I have to say, I'm all about playdates with other mommies! I don't really have any other friends at the same stage in life.

I'm pretty sure this photo was staged...

since they didn't have much to do with each other.:)

Cute nonetheless!

Lovin' the beach toys!

She's pointing to the seagulls - he never noticed them - too busy playing with and eating sand!

Some nice lady offered to take our picture.:)

A Visit to the Beach

I called up a friend and we went for a walk along the pier. Caedmon's been in a pool, but today was a first for the lake. He loves water and had a blast walking into the waves! It's so much fun to experience things through children!

A friend of mine enjoys feet pics, so I decided to take a feet picture as well.:)

I think Caedmon's feet are adorable; well, baby feet in general!:)
We did not stay dry!

Just the Two of Us

Caedmon and I took a walk on the Grand Haven Pier Sunday afternoon.(Corey was up north.) On our walk back to the car, we stopped to play in the sand. This was a first for Caedmon and he liked it! It was fun to watch him with his new discovery!
