Beach Babies





We spent a week at the beach in Ocean City, NJ with friends of ours and their 1 year old little girl, Emily. The kids had such a great time in the sand. The best thing we did though was purchase individual size pools for them on the boardwalk--Best $5 we spent all week. We just filled them with an inch or two of ocean water and Tyler was content to hold a toy and splash with the other hand for long stretches. The kids ate less sand and we weren't constantly running after crawling babies.


It was so nice to be able to just enjoy each other as a family without the demands of errands, work, cleaning and daily life.

Great idea with the pool! We are hoping to make it to the beach next year & hope this idea still works with walkers! Tyler is getting so big. Wish we lived close enough to see him in person. Love seeing all the photos!
