Sandy Thanksgiving

We were very blessed to get to spend Thanksgiving week with Erik's family at the beach. Over the course of the week, Grace turned into a fish and even floated in the ocean (come on, big news for the cautious child) and Matthew walked on the sand (I think all babies have a natural aversion to the feeling of sand on their feet). For those of you who saw her at the pool this past summer, you know what a miracle this picture is! There isn't even anyone near her or holding her!

Just chilin'.

The boy touches sand! Ta Da!

What a pair of goof balls!

This was Matthew's main source of nutrition, as he refused to eat (or sleep) on vacation: Teddy Grahams, raisins, and pretzels. I'm serious.

Fun in the pool with Uncle Stefan.

Matthew splashed as much as he does in the bathtub, only here we didn't mind so much because we were already wet!
