The Mommy Talks

I've added an album that will be updated as more and more pictures become available, so keep checking...



The ride down took 9 hours, though without 2 kids in tow, it easily could have taken only 7 and a half. The kids were really pretty good, but we did stop pretty frequently. As soon as we arrived, we took a look around the room and headed down for the kid's first look at the ocean. They absolutely loved it...



...Sunday, I made a quick trip to the grocery store and then we headed down to the beach for the morning. The kids had fun playing in the sand and surf. We picked up a few things for dinner and grilled out with Stephanie, Steven, & Jack. Ava and Nathaniel both played pretty shy with them, but are starting to come around a bit. Ava is definitely homesick and though she loves the beach, keeps talking about wanting to go home.

Monday, we went down to the pool, first thing...which, thankfully was heated b/c it's c-c-c-cold! After the pool, we headed down to the beach again and the weather started to warm up. We saw a cool Heron and a one-legged sea gull that the kids enjoyed. We headed up for lunch, napped, and went to the boardwalk for ice cream. Lastly, we went out to dinner with Stephanie, Steven & Jack. Tomorrow, we are planning to go to a pier where we may be able to see some dolphins up close. Ava should get a kick out of that.
