We just got back from an awesome trip to the beach with Kinsley! We brought along some great friends (and their kiddos) and had so much fun! Kins had several big firsts on the trip...her first time on an airplane, first time in a pool, first time on a beach, first time meeting her Great Grandma and Grandpa Maharay and her Great Great Aunts and Uncle, and...she started crawling!!! (video to come in another post)
Kins did amazingly well on the planes getting there and coming home. No crying at all, and she loved watching all of the people on the plane! A few people even said they didn't even know there was a baby in our row...that is success! :)

Our first day in NC the boys golfed in the morning and then came home to watch the kids while the girls went to the beach! We had a great time relaxing, and then the boys brought the babies up for their first beach trip! Kinsley loved the sand and the waves! Here are a bunch of pics of her first (of many hopefully) day on the beach!

Toes in the sand for the first time!

Her signature pose, with her palm up to the sky. She has been doing this for months now...we think it is her way to point at everything around her.

In Great Grandma and Grandpa's pool with Mom. Mom and Aunt Kristy have so many great memories of swimming in this pool when we were little, so it was so cool to have Kins there to start a new tradition!

Kins and Griffin holding hands! So cute!
|
 |
Poolside again!

 |
| Got the sunglasses to stay on for about 3 seconds to snap a picture! Her new favorite game on this trip was to pull her sunglasses right off her face...as well as pull everyone else's sunglasses off of their faces! |
 |
Back to the Isles for dinner to celebrate Graham and Tricia's 5th wedding anniversary!

| Our little crawler! She had attempted crawling a little before this trip, but it definitely clicked for her in NC, and she was off! Now Mom and Dad are scrambling to get the house fully baby-proofed! |
 |
| Great Aunt Cathy, Great Uncle Dave and cousin Sarah met up with us in NC on our last day there, so we got to spend the day with them! |
 |
| Nana fed Kins a pickle at lunch and surprisingly, she loved it! She ate the whole thing! |
 |
| One last trip to the beach...by our last day there, Kins was stomping and jumping in the waves and cracking up! She is definitely Mom's girl! Can't wait to go back to the beach! |
 |
Splashing with Papa!
|
 |
| With cousin Sarah |
 |
| And with Dad...she loved this so much that we had to take turns to save our backs! |

Dinner at Clark's on the intercoastal on our last night. What a great trip!!!
