This is what a day at the beach was like
3 years ago:
child sitting in the exact middle of a humongous towel
towel dusted off every 2-3 minutes so as not to have one grain of sand near child
child's hands powdered off with baby powder frequently
sun hats, rash guards, umbrellas and SPF 300 out in full force
food fed to child directly into mouth by an adult with spotlessly clean hands
an occasional walk to the water's edge in the arms of a responsible parent
back to the middle of the towel
This is what a day at the beach looks like
NOW:
need i say more?

I feel sorry for little Lu's butt
that 2nd pic is awesome. what??? she doesn't even look like she minds.
we are off to the beach today... you have inspired me to let crew touch the sand. wish me luck!
so awesome! the days of controlled beach time are long gone...so sad.
Lucy cracks me up! What I loved the most was that she didn't even care that she face planted!
I'm de-lurking...you inspire me as a new mom! Your kids look like they have so much FUN!
(I used to work with your Dad at the Nut House and he told me about your blog!) :)
that is so funny! how does that even happen?
heather - yes...we had sandy bowels for 2 days solid.
Mer & Shel - she is a very tactile child. she faceplanted once on purpose. Then I cleaned her up. Then she did it again. don't ask why. your guess is as good as mine.
Tracy - so nice to cyber meet you! I had a look at your blog and it will be a keeper since I am fashionably challenged! I love it!
this kills me. I've never seen anything quite like it (and then I saw your friend heidi's profile picture- ha)! too funny and too cute! relaxing beach days are over.
"SWEET" pictures - the whole post = so true, so true!
I'm so glad that we learn to RELAX after giving it a go with the first child. Hopefully we don't screw up our first kids too bad. . . wait it might be too late for me.
I'm so glad you captured that on camera! Priceless!
Absolutely hilarious!! Love the sandy face pictures:) It's amazing how we change as parents a time goes on.
How brave of you to have your awesome camera out with all that sand and messiness. Forget the kiddos, protect the lens!
I wish I was there to enjoy all the beach fun with you!
aaah!!!!! this is the best photo ever!
Adds a whole me meaning to Sandman...or in this case Sandwoman. That's how I feel when I shave in the morning. Maybe this is a whole new defoliation (sp?) method. It might catch on.
