family beach days....

This summer has been amazing. We've had more beach days than I can say we've ever had with the girls. Ryan even said that he's been to the beach more this summer than in his whole life! AND, he loves it!!!! YES, I changed him, or maybe the girls did! I love seeing him playing in the ocean with the girls, they adore him and have such a blast with him. I apparently never throw Mya high enough, push her fast enough or race her good enough, Daddy is on top in that aspect! And seriously, I LOVE it!
My cousins live down by LBI. We planned a beach day one Wednesday and it was a blast. Mya had a blast with her cousins (2nd cousins I guess) and it was so cute seeing them play.
Sonny's little crack was hanging out all day, I can't even take it! I wanted to just nibble him!

My cousin, AnnMarie, is a photographer and she got some great shots of the girls...

This one AnnMarie printed for me and I'm framing it!! LOVE!!!! I love Ashley's little smirk and Mya looking down at her and friggin adore the hand holding....

Future Baywatch babe, lol


OMG those teeth

Love

Aunt Ann and her grandson, too cute.

This is the first time we met little Archie too, AKA the BEST beach baby ever! This kid slept for like 2hours straight. Just chilled out in the car seat, love that!

Cousin love

Danny ready to surf like his mom and dad.

Family....I love my fam so much!

AnnMarie and her baby boy.

I packed 3 kids into the stroller and piled on as much as possible for the walk back to the house. It was like a low rider stroller.

Hit up good ole Asbury Park. This little beach cover up is from St Maartin, Reesie bought it back for Mya Bean.

Ash ready to dive in!

Mya met some friends on the beach. When I came over to her at one point she said, "Mommy, go away." Super sad, but happy she went over and played with them. Makes me excited for her to start school even more!

Found a little baby crabby on the beach.

Ash, being Ash.

Nappy time...yea right, I could only wish she would nap on the beach...

However, she does conk out in the car. lol

Another day, another trip to the Jersey shore!

Mya took this pic...impressive!

I love when she throws in a real smile.

Building castles....to just knock them down!

lunchtime...

Dewey was giving her a shampoo

Ash just wanted to stand in the bucket.

Than she went over to Frank and kept kissing him, of course I didn't get those shots. It was so sweet though.

I can't even take this girl...

We went to the beach on Saturday the 28th and convinced my mother in law to come too! She's not a beach person. I was so happy she came and I think she's going to start to come more too! This was, however, the first beach day that it poured rain on us and when I say pour I mean we were DRENCHED!
We got there and it was nice but it didn't stay like that long enough! It still gave us enough time to enjoy some waves.

Titi and Ash taking a walk, the beach was pretty deserted which was nice...

Ash was having fun digging in the sand.


Diane was loving the water with the girls too!

My girls are not afraid of the sand, that's for sure....


Sitting under the umbrella, it started drizzling. The girls shared some of Nunu's chicken.


And the sky, this should have been an indication to leave, but we were going to wait it out. We sat there for a while too, until we heard the thunder, than we left.

Can't wait for more beach days. This summer has been truly amazing!
