Quick Trip to the Beach

We were supposed to celebrate a long Labor Day weekend with the Vargas family in Orange Beach. Original plans were to leave on Thursday and come back home on Monday. Since we didn't know what was going to happen with the storm, Carrie and I decided to take Chase and Connor by ourselves on Wednesday and have the husbands meet us on Thursday.

Well needless to say, the husbands did not meet us on Thursday and we packed up and headed back home today (Friday). But we did get one beautiful, full day on the beach with the Chase and Connor yesterday.

Chase loved playing (aka, throwing) the sand while Connor was not a fan of it. But both LOVED the water. They played in the pool forever. Our two little fishes amazed me at how daring they became in the water. Chase kept jumping off the side into my arms and kicking his feet. He totally surprised me with his sudden love of the water.

Although we had a great time, Carrie and I were ready to head back this morning. Taking a 10 month old and a 2 year old to the beach by ourselves was a LOT of work. We need a vacation from our vacation :-)

Chase looks so big next to Connor. He is going to look like such a big boy next to the new one!

Love the fridge pic! Logan is like that... every time the fridge door is open, he's climbin' in! Must be a boy thing?

glad you got at least one good day at the beach. It's great that chase wasn't scared to swim.
