The BAU family had arrived in Myrtle Beach early that morning, so now they were at the beach soaking up sun. Garcia and the girls were putting the pictures took so far in a book, Rossi and Hotch were talking, the two boys were in the water jumping waves.

"Mowgan *giggle* loot anofer one." Reid pointed out laughing.

"Yep! Get ready. Get set. Jump!" Morgan jumping the wave with a laughing toddler in his arms.

Garcia and the girls notice this. They smiled and pulled out their phones and got a few pics at the two water bugs.

"Will you look at those two? They're so freaking adorble!" Garcia exclaimed taking another picture. JJ laughed at Garcias enthusiasim. Going in mother mode JJ called the two over for lunch.

"So baby boy, you having fun?" asked Emily.

"Uh-huh!" The toddler said. He was trying to wolf down his lunch so he could play more.

"Slow down Spencer. I don't want you to get sick. And no buts. We're here all week, we have plenty of time to play in the ocean." Hotch said sternly but gently.

"Yes siw." The toddler said slowing down.

While digesting, Spencer and Rossi were building a sand castle.

"Looking good boys." said JJ.

"Fant you." said Spencer. He went back to building but something caught his eye. It was a hermit crab. "Loot Wossi. A hewmit trab."

Rossi looked to where the kid was pointing.

"So it is." He said picking it up. He and Reid played with the crab and let him go.

Catching the toddler fisting his eyes, he scooped him up and laid down with him on the blanket. The boy was asleep in seconds.

After supper that night the group went for a walk on the beach. Reid had his head across Morgans chest he was falling asleep. Reid looked down and saw the same hermit crab he and Rossi played with earlier.

"Would you look at that kiddo, our friend came to say good night." Rossi said.

"Good night hewmit trab, don't tay out too late." Reid said.

They laughed. Reid was too cute sometimes. He laid back down against Morgan and fell asleep. Morgan smiled and hummed as he walked.

Back at the condo, the profilers said goodnight and turned in. They all went to bed smiling.
