Alden's New Moves and St Teresa

October is my absolute favorite month at the beach. We finally have a break from the exhaustive heat yet it is still warm and breezy. We caught this weekend at the perfect times too - with plenty of time in the sand, and some time with the tide out.

Before we left for the beach, the boys had their first taste of bacon - they LOVED it!! (Yes Alden has on a baby soccer headband to keep his hair out of his face while he eats :) )

The boys playing in the tide pools.

Daddy and Carson talking about the sand.

Catching a grin while Alden was eating the sand :)

Finishing off the day in the outside shower (this MAY have been their favorite part of the day!)

And now - they are BOTH walking!!! Alden really started cruising at the beach and hasn't stopped yet. Watch him walk here!!

On Sunday afternoon, Grandpa watched both boys for 3 hours. He took them on a walk, played in the playroom and fed them dinner. Great job Grandpa!!

I also have a little monkey on my hands. He wants to climb everything. Unfortunately, once I took this shot of him on the bottom shelf, he spent the next half hour trying to climb to the second shelf!
