Beach Bums

Well, we made it down to the Jersey Shore this weekend, and although I told Eric it would be an adventure, he didn't believe me until we lived it! Our good friends, the Nobles, were moving down to Egg Harbor Township, and we were enlisted to help them pack and unpack. We are really going to miss the Nobles, but know that since they are close to the beach that we will see them a lot!

We left Saturday morning and the boys did GREAT in the car. They slept the whole way and did great! Then we got to the house and helped unload for a while before heading over to where we were staying. We have friends that live right in Ocean City and they were out of town for a baby shower (can't wait to meet little Sammy!!), so we were able to stay at their place! That evening we headed to the boardwalk, and Landon slept the whole time in the baby carrier, and Jordan cried almost the whole time in various positions :) Needless to say it was the nosiest boardwalk experience we've ever had!

The boys slept together in the pack 'n play in our room that night which we have never had them sleep together overnight in a pack 'n play and we haven't ever slept in the same room as them (except in the hospital :)) They did great and everyone slept really well with just one middle of the night feeding!

The next day we headed to the beach, and once again Landon was able to sleep in the car seat, and Jordan cried most of the time. I used to call Landon my little 'fussypants', and I think Jordan was getting jealous of the awesome nickname. Just when I think I have these boys figured out, they do something different!

After about 2 hours at the beach, it was time to head home... again they both slept the whole way which was great! Overall, I think it was a great adventure, but I'm not sure Eric will be so brave next time :) Daddy doesn't hear them cry all week, so he was surprised when they wouldn't just fall asleep when we wanted them to!!

There aren't too many pictures since there was so much crying and not very much smiling... but enjoy what we got!

Getting ready to go to the beach... I think the faces say it all!

Dressed to go.. (Thanks Cousin April for the awesome outfits!)
