My Little Caterpillar

I was trying to get a couple of pictures so that I could pick one for Addisyn's first birthday invitations...yes it has almost been a year! So, her birthday party theme will be The Very Hungry Caterpillar, like her nursery. I dressed her in a green outfit, took her quilt from her crib and cushion from her chair to make a background and gave her an apple to hold...what I didn't realize was that she was gonna actually EAT the apple and run off! Here are some pictures of my little caterpillar!

Pictures of the Kids

Back Home

We made it back home! MiMi and Poppi came up on Friday night and went to the beach with us Saturday morning before we left. After leaving Seabrook, I took the kids to Tanger Outlets to get some new shoes for school. We did make it back home tonight safe and sound!
We now are getting ready for a full week of football and Thursday we go see who the boys' teachers are!

Have a great week everyone!

Vacation Day 6

Today I decided that we needed a day not on the beach...Addie had to much sun yesterday. So, after breakfast, Chandler suggested that we go to the Children's Museum of the Lowcountry. This is a great hands on museum especially for younger children. All three kids had a blast.

After the museum, we ate lunch at the Charleston Tea Company and had some dessert at the Cupcake! Then, the boys somehow talked me into taking them to Patriots Point to see the USS Yorktown.

Later that evening, we met up with my bestest, Allison, and had dinner at A.W. Shucks. This is a really great restaurant if you are looking for a restaurant in downtown Charleston. After dinner, we went down to the Battery for some photo's.

Vacation Day 5

"Look at my fishy Bubbie!"


Addie is getting better at walking in the waves.


"Bubbie, if you aren't gonna use your board, I will!"

Vacation Day 4

I bought both boys boogie boards...I guess I should have bought one for Addie too! She took Chandler's hostage so the boys were "fighting" over Bailey's. Later on, Addie gave Bailey's boogie board a mud bath...I guess it needed exfoliating.



The boogie boards were a great investment. The boys were entertained with them for 4 hours. Addie on the other hand got a little sleepy...
But the boys keep right on riding waves.












For dinner tonight, we went to a restaurant at the Bohicket Marina called Rosebank Farms Cafe. While we waited on our tabel, we walked along the Marina and looked at all the yachts and boats.

Vacation Day 3

Today, the boys went golfing with my cousin, Brian Benenhaley. First, we all had lunch at the Beach Club. At 1:00pm, the boys had a golf lesson with some of the pro's from the pro shop. After that, the three of them shot 10 holes of golf. The boys had a BLAST! That is all they talked about all afternoon! Luckily, Brian got a few pictures while they were on the golf course.



























While the boys played golf, Addie and I went to the pool (it's much easier to take her to the pool when I'm by myself). Addie decided that she was "big enough" to "jump" off of the side of the pool and go all the way underwater!



















Then, Addie decided she wanted to be a monkey....


But she is my little beach baby!

Vacation Day 2

All three kids enjoyed the water. The boys even played with their sister in the surf this morning.















The boys were trying to build a wall to block the water...so Addie decided she was gonna help...









they didn't want her help...so she just got in the "water hole" they had made!



That afternoon, we went to the pool for awhile...


















After all the fun in the sun, we went out to dinner to the little pizza place in Freshfields Village and then had ice cream for dessert. The boys were very well behaved today and I am so proud of them!

All three kids were in the bed asleep before 9pm! It was a great day...we wish Kevin was here with us though!
