Ocean City 2013

Over the 4th the Coughlins and Rainers had their traditional summer vacation in Ocean City. Sophie stayed with them for the entire week and enjoyed being the most spoiled little grandkid there was. Lauren and I came down for a few days at the end of the week. While the weather the first part of the week wasn't great, the weather at the end was perfect! Lots of beach sitting, cocktail drinking, book reading, bike riding, treasure burying and just relaxing.... ahhhh. I have about a million pictures, and here are just a few of the highlights.

Lauren's first real beach day. She wasn't a fan of the water, but didn't mind hanging out in her chair or on the lap of her relatives. 

 Sophie is a true beach bum. She could be down there for 8 hours straight, and still not be ready to leave. She had a blast playing by herself, making friends, and running in and out of the water. 

And what's a trip to Ocean City without renting a surrey?

The whole crew (sans James, who is taking the picture)

 After the week was over, Becky, James, Mom & Dad and all of us visited with Kathy & Dave at their new house in Rock Hall, MD. Here's Sophie helping Dave and Uncle Ed to clean a fish. She's quite the little helper. 

Zoe Turns 18!

On June 28th Zoe turned 18! Her grandparents threw her a surprise party - and she was really surprised. It was at the Ocean City Yacht Club, and a whole slew of friends and family turned up to celebrate. 

Here's the birthday girl with Dave

Lauren had her 6 month check up last week. She's doing great and getting big! 16lbs and 26 inches long. Here she is in her 4th of July outfit!
