Seaside {OR} Day 1


And we were off to the coast (finally!!!) We were all pretty excited to get to the beach. Madilyn watched her movies on the way (fighting sleep as usual).

I enjoyed all the great old SUV cars that we came across. Here is one :)

and Cowen slept (in the "hammock" as we call this sleep position). This has been one of his favorite sleep positions since day one. It just looks like he is kicking back in a hammock to us. So comfortable.

I loved all the farm stands along the way.

and the bridges

and tunnels. Madilyn really enjoyed the tunnels too. She kept asking if we could go through another one and another one.

Finally we made it to Seaside and our beach house! We loved the cute starfish on all the lamp posts.

and here is our beach house and a little tour for you all.
This is the great room.

and kitchen. I LOVED this kitchen. It was so bright and big. Perfect for cooking. The only problem was there wasn't any place to eat except for the bar/barstools. That made it hard to feed Cowen, as I forgot his highchair (BIG oops).

Here is 1 bedroom

and the master bedroom. So cute, but weird that the box springs were exposed....it kind of bugged me, but then I am completely OCD with decorating. I kept thinking of the things that I would add and change etc. It is just a problem that I have :) The bed was comfortable though and the room was huge. Good thing, because we all slept in this one room. We put one of the mattresses from the other room and put it on the floor for Madilyn. She was comfy there with her "Cars" tent. We put the pack-n-play on the other side for Cowen. It worked out really well. We could put the kiddos to bed and then watch TV and have some beers downstairs without disturbing them.

the master bathroom.

More of the master bedroom. It was 2 story and the light was amazing.

cute backyard with a garden.
the kiddos wasted no time exploring/rearranging the place.


We also went to the beach that evening. More pics to come.
