The Beach: Part 1

Look who's FINALLY walking!!

But he loved crawling at the beach so the waves would splash him in the face. :)

The protective big brother.

Building a sand castle with Daddy.

Cousin Jace showed up! My boys were so excited to see him!

Cousins!

Jake went "jelly-fishing" (like on SpongeBob)...but he only managed to catch himself.

These two are besties for sure!

We just got back from a 1 week stay in St. Simons Island. My parents rented this pimp house, and we ended up staying longer than we expected. We did not want to leave!

We went to the beach almost every morning, came home jumped in the pool, ate lunch, got back in the pool, and played until supper. It was awesome! Both boys LOVED the beach; Walker ate so much sand and salt water that we thought he'd get sick, but he was fine. He was fearless just like Jake. Jake FINALLY learned to swim before we left Birmingham, and he was almost over confident at the beach. I looked up a few times and Jake was up to his shoulders in the ocean...so scary for this mama...especially since I have a fear of the ocean floor. ;)

This was definitely one of the best vacations of all time! Thanks, Mom and Dad, for making it possible. We love you guys and miss y'all so much already!
