Today was experience the beach day. We headed down to Lido Beach and once we finally found a parking spot ventured out to the sand. Angel was a bit intimidated right away by the massive sand and all the people and crashing waves. So we found a spot and sat down. I knew Angel would not go near the water and she didn't. She was quite content sitting on the beach towel watching and playing in the sand. I thought Emma might have liked to get her feet wet, but when we got close to the water she got scared by a wave and lost her balance and fell on her bum in the water......then that was the end of that!! She was quite fussy the rest of the time and I don't think knew what to make of this whole water/sand thing. So Aunt Caitlin helped Angel walk along and find sea shells which she really enjoyed. Baby Bertie enjoyed it however and Megs has some cute videos over at her site, www.thesturhahns.com and one of the girls too. So once the kids had enough (and the hot sun was making me feel very yucky!) we decided to leave Caitlin and Alli to enjoy the sun and beach and Megs and I took the kiddies home. Alli and Caitlin got some red sun (Alli said she didn't realize that legs would burn!) and in the short time we were out there, we got some sun too....especially Angel's cheeks!! So maybe when they girls get older they will like the water more. Too bad we don't get here that often for them to get used to it. We had a relaxing night and made some yummy tacos for dinner. Last night sleeping was so much better....all the kids slept great and didn't wake each other up so hopefully that will happen again tonight. Trying to enjoy the moments of all the sisters and kids being together with Meme and Pepe......who knows if this will ever happen again.
