Outer Banks Fun

All morning at the beach...

means fussy girls in short ride home...

but nice longgg naps!

Girls went down around 1:30..
Sophie woke up at 3:50.. Sienna after 4:30!

House smells soo yummy with the barbecue pork in

the crock pot for pulled pork sandwiches tonight..

We've been having so much fun just relaxing and spending time together.

Here's an Instagram overload..

because we can't stop taking photos of the cuteness. :)

This is our first beach vacation..and we are loving it.

Feeling very blessed and trying to soak in every minute.

It's so fun seeing the girls hold hands and run around together..giggling..

Sienna wasn't so sure about the sand..still has moments of "freaking out"..

it's all fun and games till she tries to blow it in her hand and ends up eating it.....lovely. 

I think by tomorrow she'll be more confident with the whole experience.

But I don't mind her being my little partner in

sitting in the chairs and snacking on gold fish and grapes. :)

Sophie went for a walk with daddy and saw a boy who caught a sting ray..

she was terrified. cried.

wouldn't stop talking about the yucky fish. haha.
Sophie: "I don't like that fish. I was crying cause I didn't like it. Go back in the waterrr"
Sienna then follows up with "backkk watterrr ::points somewhere::"

Sophie has been finding lots of shells and loading up her bucket!

She has a little watering can..favorite toy so far.

She has alsooo been telling random people there is a baby in my tummy...

and that it's going to pop out.

Yesterday we were playing on a playground..and sophie says: 

"Mom.. I'm feeling angry and mean because I'm hot.

Water will make it better. and AC.".......

Best part was that she said it fake pouting (not grouchy at all) with her arms crossed. ;)
Photo below of sienna on ben's shoulders was when we were "watching" the sunset..
It's so pretty here!

Looking at these photos..I turned to ben and said

"Can you believe we have kids that are this big??"

haha..seriously though...we have toddlers. this is insane. and awesome.

Hope you are having a great week!

Thanks for following along on our little family adventure..
