Ashley Michael Darby Family Vacation

Ashley Darby and her husband, Michael Darby, welcomed their first child, Dean Michael Darby, to the world on July 7, and he's been the apple of his parents' eye ever since. The Real Housewives of Potomac couple's new addition has already gotten some travel experience under his tiny belt — he's been to the Bravo Clubhouse in the New York City for Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen (where he got to meet Andy himself!), but now baby Dean has hit a new milestone: his very first beach vacation!

How to Watch

For their special family getaway, the Darbys decided to leave the wintery vibes of the Southeast United States and travel somewhere much warmer and more tropical. They journeyed nearly 1000 miles south of their home base to reach the aptly-named Dean's Blue Hole Pool in Nassau, Bahamas, where Michael nicknamed Dean a "water baby" because he really seemed to enjoy being there a lot.

He appears to be a natural and will probably be doing high dives in no time... or at least swimming.

"Move over fish, Dean is taking over the seas!" Michael captioned a cute video of Dean playing in the water that he posted to his Instagram feed.

Michael also made the discovery that Dean loves the sound of splashing after he accidentally fell in the pool — it makes the baby laugh, so they did it a bunch!

"Whatever we did to deserve this human as our child I would do again for an eternity," Ashley wrote as the caption to one of the sweetest pics you'll probably see today.

And here's the other cutest pics for the day — you're welcome!
