A day at the beach. We decided to go for a family stroll on the beach yesterday. Mason made a beeline for the water and was not too happy that I wouldn't let him get close. I think he actually thought he was going for a swim. Barley had fun chasing all the birds, he sure seemed like he had a good time. I personally prefer the beach in the summer. This is the closest we've got to taking a family photo with the lighthouse, "Big Red", in the background.

All the kids have been to the doctor for checkups this week. Mia is now 35 lbs. Mason is 25 and Barley is 27. Barley has already passed Mason in weight. I think we have a few years before Mason passes him back:)
