Happy Fathers Day!

Mima and PoPo came for the weekend. We headed to Skimmers Weekend and the beach in Sea Isle one day and out to breakfast the next day.

All the guys on the dock.



Here's PoPo opening his little gift...



Evan says, "Please don't take my picture!"



3 generations of Cronin men. Mike wears his special flower head piece.



We had Fathers Day breakfast at South Doc on the bay.





Noah and Pop play "flip the creamer container". Here they are in mid-play.




My mommy poses on a bench.




The boys are up to no good.




The ladies with Evan...



and the men....



I'll leave you all with this. The color is a little crazy because it was taken on Mike's phone. Click on this one to make it bigger. Stare into his eyes. You are getting sleepy...



This was Friday night when Mima and PoPo came and we went to Coconut Cove (currently Evan's favorite restaurant). Corn is Noah's favorite food. Give him an ear of corn and he'll give it back bare. He also wouldn't stop staring at the girls at the table behind him. He was twisted in his high chair in a complete 180. That's his thing now. Even at the beach, he'll walk away from us and go to other families and stare at them. One time a dad said to him, "Hey little man, what's up. High five?" And Noah gave him a high five. Sometimes he'll sit at their beach toy pile and stare at them, waiting for them to say 'ya, sure you can play with it'.

Soooo - HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

You're the best dads in the world! We love you so much!!!

Life is really, really good

What an awesome sky!



So we've been in our home for a year now and I'm so happy that we made the move. We're surrounded by family and friends that love us so much. My kids have so many people around them that love them to pieces and want to be with them. Mike and I are able to have date nights... and we're so close to the beach! Evan's school year ends next week - then it's nothing but summer fun for the next 3 months! Beach, bbqs, boardwalk all summer long! Evan and Noah are the two luckiest kids on the planet.






Please click on the picture below to see Noah's face. This kid is so funny! And no fear of the ocean. No fear of anything!






Evan runs back to our "camp".




Then back to the water!






The lifeguards are gone since it's after 5pm, so Evan and I race to the stand.



So does Noah.



But it's getting cooler, so Noah gets a sweatshirt.




Up on the stand. I share a special moment with my Evan who doesn't like kisses anymore. I think I snuck one in here anyway.





And we head home with sandy feet.

Mothers Day

I'm such a lucky mommy! I love my boys - all 3 of them.

We spent the day in Stone Harbor.



Pop's work had boats on display.



We ran into Uncle Fred, Aunt Missy, Brynn & Devon. We run into them everywhere! This picture makes me think my kids look like my dad's side of the family.



And Lobster House for dinner!
