It has been awhile, so I thought I'd quick mention that we are having a fun time in Florida with the Keppel side of our family. My aunts/uncles/cousins on that side used to get together at a beach in the summer. We're trying again, now with a new set of little kids. MJ and Joey enjoyed seeing cousin Ceali who is 9 months old, and their second cousins Emmanual and Magdalena. Now all those other kiddos are gone, but we are still having a great time at the beach. I'll have to get some pictures off of my mom's camera soon.
Joey and MJ LOVE the beach. Joey splashed all around in the water as it crashed on the beach the first day. The second day, he thought he should walk right in the waves, and didn't want me to hold him even. But I couldn't let go since the water was up to my shoulders standing. So, I got him some arm floaties and a ring and he was happy. MJ also jumps right in the water. Mario suggested we get a vest for MJ to wear which was such a good idea. He is very happy floating, kicking, and spinning around in the big waves (and I'm happy knowing that he is safe.)
Pictures to come later, I hope...
