"We're going to the beach today, want to come with?" Ashley asks me over the phone

"Sure just let me get ready" I say

"We're leaving around nine so we'll have time to come back and get ready for the engagement party after" She says

"Sounds like a good plan. Maybe I'll pack mine and Emma's dresses and get ready over your house" I say

"Sounds good" She says before hanging up

I go in Emma's closet while she's sleeping and take out her leopard print bathing suit and the dress I bought her for the party tonight. Then I go in my bedroom and take out my black bikini as wells as my dress for tonight. I pack a clothes bag and put our dresses and shoes in it. I don't bother packing a curling iron or any makeup since Ashley has all of that at their house. I pack a different bag with towels, sunscreen, and tanning lotion.

I put on my bikini and a white flowy romper bathing suit cover.

I put on some white flip flops and then walk to Emma's room. I wake her up and she smiles when she sees her bathing suit.

"Beach?" She asks

I nod smiling and she claps her hands. I change her into a water proof pamper and then put her in her bathing suit.

I put a some white shorts on her before putting her white sandals on

I put a some white shorts on her before putting her white sandals on. I brush her teeth and then I brush mine. I fill her sippy cup up with water and then hand it her as I grab our things and we leave the apartment.

Once I have everything in the car I drive over to Ashley and Josh's. I open the door and Emma runs into the kitchen. I take our things for tonight upstairs and sit them in the guest bedroom. As I come back downstairs, Josh and Ashley walk out from the kitchen with Emma on Ashley's hip.

"Is this one new?" Ashley asks referring to Emma's bathing suit

I nod and take Emma from her. Emma lays her head on my shoulder while she eats the cereal bar Josh gave her.

"Ready to go?" I ask them

They both nod and I walk out to my car. I take out Emma's car seat and move it to their car. I buckle Emma in before sliding in the back with her. About fifteen minutes later we pull up at the beach. I unbuckle Emma from her car seat and grab our beach bag. Once we find a spot in the shade I take out the spray-on sunscreen and spray it on Emma. I take off her shorts and put them in the bag. She runs off to the sand and starts digging a hole. I gather my beach towel and put on some tanning lotion before laying my towel out and watching Emma play with a random little girl. Ashley comes beside me wearing her hot pink bikini. She lays out her towel and leans back on her arms.
