The Cowboy and the Mermaid

An early morning romp in the armoire is always a nice way to start the day.

Lorelei and Dwight get the three hungry kids started on breakfast. Lorelei watches and helps the kids while Dwight makes coffee and and serves up the last of the angel food cake since they are both quite hungry and don't want to wait for him to cook breakfast.

Erin crawls into the kitchen to find her Dad. She surprises her Dad and asks to be picked up. Such a smart little girl learning to potty and talk before her brothers. Dwight and Erin enjoy a nice chat.

The triplets enjoy playing in the wading pools. Dwight makes faces at Erin and then takes her down the beach to learn to walk. Eric rides the tricycle around the pool, up and down the dunes and even in between the bushes. He's got some strong little legs. Austin takes a turn on the tricycle as well and beeps and toots the horn laughing with happiness at the sound it makes.
