OBX 2009

The Outerbanks was a new experience for the boys this year. They were not mobile last year so this year was completely different for ALL of us. They both were all over the place in the house and out.
Drew absolutely loved the waves and the ocean water. He spent most of his time giggling, talking, and yelling at the waves. He even had a few waves knock him over and drench him, but he just laughed the whole time. That is VERY different from last year.
Jake was not a fan of the water and would run if it looked like it might come anywhere near him. He also was not a big fan of the sand on his hands - but the rest of his body was fair game. He seemed to enjoy sunbathing on or off a beach towel in the sand. He also LOVED the pool. We could not keep him out of it and he would even just step right in - no matter where he was (shallow or deep end).
Although both boys had many many screaming fits, it was an enjoyable family vacation thanks to all the helping hands. Nana, Poppy, and Deanna all were on duty to help out and we could not have made it through the week without them. We also had Jena, Tim and their twins Lacy & Dakota with us. The four toddlers were quite a lot of work, but also a lot of fun!
We are already looking forward to next year!
