Aptos Beach

The beach is so peaceful and calm.

It's so beautiful.

But when you throw in three 14 month olds...

you don't have a calm beach anymore...

you have boys

exploring the sand

eating the sand

playing with seaweed

picking up little pebbles, crabs or seashells

feeling the water

 

You have boys that end up loving the ocean.

This just happens to be our boys.

 

We took the boys down to Aptos beach- which is a close walk from Beach House 257.

It's a beautiful beach.

A little photo session was a must!

 

 

 

 

It was nice to get out and walk in fresh air and the scenery isn't too bad either!

We even saw dolphins swimming in the ocean.

I think I got the most excited out of everybody, even though I have seen them before.

Its just neat to see them in their true environment.

Such pretty sea creatures.

 

The last night, we decided to talk a walk down to watch the sunset.

It was absolutely magnificent.

John was busy taking pictures while I strolled the boys.

The looks I got was hilarious.

I wonder what people really thought as they saw me strolling three boys.

Logan- I love how genuinely happy he looks here...that's our little Logee

 

Only one group of people stopped and talked to me while I was on the pier.

They were two older ladies with an older man.

They reminded me of my grandparents.

All they could say to me were sweet comments.

How blessed we are.

How special each moment and milestone must be.

How lucky we are to have three healthy strong boys.

They didn't ask any questions.

They just talked to me for a while about their grandkids.

They asked if they could take a picture of my boys...

it was the first time I have let any stranger take a picture.

Usually, I ask them to put the camera away nicely.

(we are not a show)

But this time...I let them take their pictures.

Maybe it was becuase I know how special these boys are to my grandparents.

Maybe it was becuase they weren't pushing me for information.

Maybe it was because I know how slim of a chance they will see identical triplets again.

Either way...it just felt right.

At that moment, everything felt right.
