Vacation!

August has been a busy month so I haven't been on the computer much. A few weeks ago we took our annual beach vacation. We all had a great time -- David and I loved every second of it. Papa Sonny and Deb were nice enough to lend out their fabulous ocean-front condo, and Grandma and Pop were brave enough to take the girls for the first few nights. That means David and I got to enjoy late-night dinners, the movies, and sleeping in. It was wonderful but to be honest, we began to miss the little buggers after a few days without them. The rest of the week the girls stayed with us at the condo, and we got in tons of beach and pool time. Abby is becoming quite comfortable in the water, and I've officially realized that Emmy truly is the most happy, easy baby. Honestly, everyone who comes into contact with her tells me so.

Here are some highlights from our vacation:

- We took Abby to her first Japanese restaurant and the child ATE WITH CHOPSTICKS (ok, training chopsticks) while the rest of us stuck with forks.

- As we were leaving the beach one day around 5pm, a wedding party was arriving for a beachfront wedding. Abby saw all the bridesmaids gathered together and gasped "look Daddy, princesses!"

- Emmy slept like a champ both at Grandma's and at the condo. We put her down around 7-ish and don't hear a peep until at least 12 hours later. YIPEE!

All in all, we had an amazing time and we're already excited for next year's trip. A big thanks to Papa Sonny/Deb and Grandma/Pop!
