Back to Life, back to reality...

Do you remember that song? That is what I keep thinking about as I sit here, back to normal life. We had a wonderful week at the beach! We were in a beautiful house that sat right on the beach. Every window you looked out of had an amazing ocean view. The only thing between us and the ocean was the heated pool......sigh. What a life! Last year at the beach, Molly was hard to keep out of the ocean. Since she has grown up some now and is scared of her own shadow, I figured there was no WAY she would really be into the beach. WRONG! Scotty took her down the day we got there to see the water, only to return about 10 minutes later because she had literally just run straight into the water (in her clothes!)! She LOVED it! Couldn't get enough, as evidenced by this picture....

The water was freezing, but she didn't care! Meanwhile, Jack did a lot of this....
He was the BEST baby ever!

Last year on this trip, Molly started really walking. This year, Jack started really sleeping though the night!! He had been doing 8 hours, but he went to 12, sleeping from 7:30-7:30! Yea!!!! And I loved getting up to feed him in the morning, because I got to sit in a chair in the main room and watch this...

I'm usually ready to come home after a week away, but not this year! It was really hard to come home! Here are a few more pics, just for fun...
