Love these Boys

Nags Head

 Levi was nervous about the ocean. He clung tight to momma and daddy and hid his eyes and slept each time we went down until two days before our week was up.  What a blessing it was to hold this sweet boy and watch him sleep while looking out at the ocean.
Then one evening I decided I would lay him on the mat to sleep while I played with Elijah and Savannah. He curled up and pretended he was going to sleep at first and then he placed his hand in the sand and began playing in it. Before long he was running and chasing Elijah and building sand castles with Savannah.

Here we had just parked by the road and walked to the beach to take a look around and he hugged daddy tight and was already starting to fall asleep. This is one of my favorite pictures from our trip. Our entire vacation was a little crazy so we didn't even try to take any family pictures. What is it about a man holding a baby that makes him so much more attractive? :)

Elijah was perfectly happy playing in the sand once it dried  a little and he realized it wasn't going to sink him all the way up. (and make me go up to God, he would say while pointing to the sky) I do believe he had a blast playing in the water as he and Savannah jumped the waves as they washed up the beach.

So thankful that through all the craziness of the trip God watched over us and protected us.
