We took a long family walk along the water's edge from Mirimar to Frangista beach, this morning.
My favorite part was the pretty herringbone tracks the beach patrol jeeps had left perfectly stamped into the sand. The sand here is so soft and squishy. For someone like me with a lot of sensory processing issues, this felt like heaven on my feet. Reese also loved it and stayed close to my side. Corbin was the first one soaked, Quickly followed by Quincy. Reese jumped in as well when we were almost back home. Soren cursed the ocean when a rogue wave got his shorts wet. Sloane said hi to every moving going, then nuzzled into my neckline and sucked her finger and thumb and begged for a nap when she grew tired of the wind. Her hair looked more red than Soren's in the overcast daylight today. I so wish it would stay red!
Sloane now turns everything into a phone and crawls around on one arm with the other holding her "phone" to her ear. A sign that I probably spend too much time talking on mine while I putter around doing housework. Here she is talking to "dad" on Reese's phone.
This little lizard critter was 4 balconies up! The older children were still down at the beach and I spotted him/her out my window when I put Sloane down for a nap and had to catch a pic so the kids could see.
After our walk, we had lunch and then the kids changed into suits and went down to play at the beach with Aaron and jump in the waves while little ones napped and I caught up on laundry and dishes. Translate: I loaded both machines and made it 2 paragraphs into a book before falling asleep, too. Vacation time well spent.
