CA Vacation Newport Beach

Time at the Condo There was so much to do at the condo. We were either swimming, playing giant checkers, basketball, tether ball or at the putting green. It was nice to have some options to entertain the kids there where we were staying. We made many memories with cousins and each other! It was a great last vacation before the twins arrive. The boys enjoyed all of it and we had wonderful weather. We were all reluctant to come home, the sign of a great vacation!

Tide Pools
We had a great time at the tide pools at Laguna Beach. We saw many sea creatures, including many crabs, muscles, sea anemones (mom's favorite), sea urchins, and Dad and Braden even saw an octopus!

THE BEACH During our vacation we spent 3 days on the beach. We had much fun, eating, spending time with cousins, playing baseball, football, frisbee, smash ball, boogie boarding, and playing in the sand. There are many pictures to share! My bro Bryan and his family joined us as well as my dad and step mom. My kids loved to go in the water and play around. Tyson came up with what he called "T boarding" Instead of catching the wave before it crashed on the boogie board, they would wait until it crashed and came closer to them and then ride it in. Braden loved to warm up in the warm sand when he was done in the water. Nathan love to play with the cars that were in Uncle Bry's bag in the sand and play baseball. We even went to the beach that I played at when I was young. Every year we would take a trip to Laguna beach and we had what we thought was our own private beach. It was fun to show my kids where I vacationed as a kid and make our own memories there!

20 Weeks

So here I am at 20 weeks. I am feeling good, no more nausea, thank goodness. I do find I have to slow down already and take many breaks during the day to just put my feet up. The babies are doing great and I feel them move around more each day.
