I can do it...sort of

I tried the sippy cup tonight for the first time with Jack. Since he has teeth coming in, he was really more interested in chewing rather than drinking, but we'll keep trying.

picnic in the car

Hungry, cold and tired, the kids were ready to eat. It's less sandy in the back of the car than on the beach, at least it was when we started.

Jim steps in

Little did Jim know that when he agreed to come to the beach today and Joe had to cancel, that he would have 2 kids attached to him. Brooke was excited to have someone to play in the waves with.

Jack's first trip to the beach

By the end of the day, I think that Jack had 1/2 of the sand in his diaper and 1/2 in his mouth. He loved exploring the sand and water at Surfside Beach.

vroom, vroom

The only way to grocery shop :0)

Aunt Mary is the coolest

When Brooke finally warmed up, she loved being around Aunt Mary and Jack loves anyone who will give him their complete attention.

sleepover...the morning after

Joe went and got doughnuts to celebrate how well Brooke and Ben did on their first sleepover. They both woke up about 6:30 this morning and I could hear them tiptoeing around the house to see if anyone else was awake. I was really expecting Ben to come into my room and shout "good morning"
