To The Beach Again

I'm sure I'll have many a beach post this summer. It was a gorgeous day today, so we took Caitlin and her friend Lauren to the beach. Caitlin is now 14 months old and Lauren is 3 years old. They were both fearless when it came to running in the water, so we spent a lot of time chasing after them. Steve, myself, and Steve's dad Clark went with the two girls to the beach. Lauren's mom and I switch taking both the kids once a month, so it gives us a morning off. Well, it depends how that morning is used, but it's supposed to be a morning off! Here's the photos!

I bought her this hat, because it ties around the neck and she can't get it off. Although, I don't think she tried to get this one off. Maybe she knew she couldn't. I'd like to sew a band on the hat that matches her bathing suit, but I'm not a big sewing fan. I wish I was. I have 5 suits for work that need to be hemmed and they've been in my closet for 2 months!

Happy Beach Face

Catilin playing in the water. This is a little pool of ocean water that is just before the ocean. I'm sure there's a name for that, but I don't know it! What she loved the most was standing in the ocean and letting the waves push her backwards. The water was ice cold, but she loved it!

This is Lauren telling me that she doesn't want her photo taken. We got 2 photos of her running away.
