For 5 1/2-month-old Krew, it was his first time to the beach.

He wasn't real sure what to make of the water...

...but he loved hanging out with Daddy Kamaron and Mommy Anique on the beach.

Little Abram, 4 months old, had already seen the ocean this summer and he wasn't overly thrilled with the water.

Daddy Kyler and Mommy Kara brought him down to the shore...

...where he pretty much slept every morning away.

Kinda like his Papaw...my biggest beach baby of all!

Twins Kassie and Kelsey, 21 months old, were not nearly as smitten with the ocean waves as Mommy Dana and Daddy Kristoffer...

But eventually they did warm up to it, even though they had more fun playing on the shore...

...and looking so adorable!!!

Kaden (4 years) and Karter (6) are old beach pros, having been to Emerald Isle every year of their short lives.

And oh-my-goodness, did they ever have FUN!!!

They entertained us all...

Our sweet, sweet...

....beach babies.
