Harper (and Kevin and I) got to spend the week in the Outer Banks with my family at the end of August. We had a fabulous time!! We had a small house for 8 people, but it was on the beach and that made the close quarters very much worth it. A typical day involved a sunrise breakfast (for Harper) on the rooftop deck followed by a little playtime inside while the water in the baby pool warmed up. Then, she usually spent 30-45 minutes each morning on the deck or beach in her pool, and then it was time to eat again and take a long afternoon nap.
Her great-grandparents were better than great and stayed at the house with her each afternoon while she took a nap so Kevin and I could both enjoy the beach. Then we either went out to eat or cooked a great meal in, took a walk on the beach, and it was time for bed! Sounds pretty uneventful now that I'm writing it, but it's just what all three of us needed after a busy couple of weeks.
Here are some pictures from the week:
Harper wasn't entertained that we were making her pose for photos on a bright pink, oversized adirondack chair. Harper, when you read this someday, please know it was your Grandma's idea.
One of our evening walks on the beach
This was one of Bailey's many evening swims. She got so much exercise this week she slept for almost the entire next week at home.

Bailey: Gimme, Gimme, Gimme
Harper: Mitts Off puppy
Bailey's probably lookin' for some spit-up in this shot. Oh how beautiful a family we have :)
Both faces are priceless in this one
Watch out Tyra, Harper has quite a portfolio
Harper's set-up on the beach. By the time the camera defogged from the humidity, she decided she was done in the pool, so this is all ya get.
