Beautiful Weather
This past weekend the weather was spectacular! We didn't do much for St. Patrick's Day, but we did spend a lot of time outside. Stretchy is loving it! So many new things to look at and touch and feel. Mommy & Daddy are loving it too, since all the fresh air makes Stretchy really tired, and when she naps well during the day, she's a much less cranky baby.

Our Trip to NC: Day 4
Friday morning, Stretchy, Bob's mom and I woke up early and let the boys sleep. We decided to go to a cute little bakery near the beach for breakfast where we shared some fantastically delicious sweets. Stretchy flirted with the men at the table next to us.
After breakfast we were so full that we decided to take a walk on the beach. Stretchy slept the whole time. It was so peaceful. It was cool and overcast and a little breezy. There were only a few other people and it was a great way to start the morning.
When we got home, we decided to venture in to downtown Southport for some shopping, coffee and a wine tasting. Stretchy had a good time.
After a rest at home, we went back to the beach one last time so Stretchy could play in the sand (and we could take a video!).
After Stretchy played the piano a bit,
we set up a photo shoot of Stretchy in the same chair as Bob sat in when he was 5 months old... which is which??
Our trip ended with a great meal of fresh fish and some silly home movies of Bob when he was little.
The next day we flew home. Aside from the delay in DC, it was a pretty uneventful trip. We had a great time in North Carolina, but its always nice to be home!

Our Trip to NC: Day 3
Thursday we woke up to another beautiful day.
Stretchy took her morning nap during our early morning walk.
Then we enjoyed some time out on the porch.
The weather was so nice that Bob's dad agreed to take us out on the boat!
At first Stretchy didn't seem to like her life-preserver, but soon she was having a blast as we sped through the water.
After such a great day outside and all that fresh air, Stretchy fell asleep at 5:30! We should go out in the sun everyday!!

Our Trip to NC: Day 2
On Wednesday, Stretchy woke up happy. She slept in a little and seemed refreshed.
Bob's parents bought Stretchy an umbrella stroller since we weren't able to bring ours, and even though she's still a little too small for it, she seemed to like it.
We got her ready to go out
and decided to enjoy the nice warm weather and take her for a walk.
Later that evening, we went over to Bob's Grandmother's house to visit. It was pretty exciting as she's 100 years old and this would be her first time meeting her great granddaughter!
They seemed to like each other pretty well.
Stretchy also really liked the beer we were offered.
After a busy day, Stretchy was exhausted!! (And so were we!)

We couldn't get enough of the mild weather and decided we'd also take Stretchy to the beach. I was pretty excited since Stretchy can now almost sit by herself and really enjoys playing with things around her. I was hoping for some pretty cute beach pictures and I wasn't disappointed.
