Fun at the beach

On Sunday night we all had a craving to see the ocean so we headed down just in time to see the sunset. It was seriously amazing. The kids played on the playground in the dark and us adults planned future trips.

Thursday we went to Leslie beach and enjoyed the afternoon. Ryan is still between jobs and basically doesn't have a whole lot to do on Bloomingdale's so he's been home early and we've been hitting the beach frequently. It has been heavenly. Ami said her first "bye-bye" to the train as it passed.

This is one of Oliver's favorite games, the Ami chasing game. The more kids there are to join in on the chase, the better. I cannot get enough of the squeals of delight on both ends of the chase.

Amelie practicing her walking skills on the sand. She is getting to be quite the mover these days. You can tell she's just so pleased with herself and is already planning on how to keep up with Ollie.

What is with 1 year olds and stairs? Well Ami is no different in her obsession with stairs lately. All she wants to do is go up and down, walking of course, none of this crawling business. I LOVE this walkway and I love the above picture. The future is so bright.

This is such a classic Facer face I can't even handle it.

Hello Gerber baby. Wait, I'm not sure if a true Gerber baby would be caught eating so much sand. To Ami's defense, her sand eating has actually calmed down a bit. She is much more interested in storing things in her mouth like rocks, coal, seaweed, shells, all that good stuff. Occasionally she starts actually eating the seaweed. She must think it's really tasty.

We stayed until dark and topped the night off with some sushi. Seriously what is with the sushi obsession lately? It is the only thing we want to eat lately. It just leaves you feeling so satisfied in the best way possible. I need to learn how to make some delicious sushi.
