Our Last Summer Get-Away!

We spent last week touring SC’s Low Country, making wonderful memories with family and friends.  We started our week in Bluffton, visiting our friends who just moved to the area.  For some reason, I didn’t take one picture!!  DSC_1437 We made a short stop at Edisto Beach to visit Granny and GranDan.  Can you tell  Baker was so excited?

DSC_1447 The ocean was rough from recent storms, but that didn’t stop Baker.  She laughed and smiled through every wave.  I think it helped that her GranDan was there with her!DSC_1449 DSC_1451 DSC_1453Palmer’s 1st visit to the ocean was short and sweet!  The overcast was nice, but after a few minutes it was just too hot for him.  I think we’ll see a lot more action from him on next year’s visit!

We also spent a few days at Yonge’s Island visiting Great-Aunt Anne and Great-Uncle Merlin. DSC_1460

I said, “Baker can you tell that Aunt Anne and Bebe are sisters?”  Her reply was “Yes!  They are both old!”. DSC_1461 DSC_1464 DSC_1466

Our last stop was to see GinGin!  We enjoyed every minute spending time with our friends and family.  What a great way to end the summer!DSC_1468

I love this moment that Lacy captured!  I can just see the love they have for each other!

Palmer’s 1st Week of Daycare!

Well, we all survived our 1st week back to reality!  Getting 2 kids out the door and on time for work requires great planning.   I loved the sign they made to welcome Palmer to their class.  It was a great feeling to know that he will be loved and well taken care of.  DSC_1469 It was really hard to let Palmer go!  I have truly enjoyed every moment snuggling with my little man. (Oh how I cried on and off, all day Monday!)  Ms. Amanda and Ms. Susan made the transition a lot easier.  On the 2nd day I dropped Palmer off, I asked Ms. Amanda where she wanted me to put Palmer and she said “right here in my arms”.  Oh…that made my heart happy and made it so much easier to make it through the day!

This was Baker’s 1st day of daycare with Ms. Barbara.  We have been so lucky to have such wonderful people take care of our babies!

DSC_1470 It’s ironic…Palmer’s crib is in the same spot as Baker’s was!DSC_1471 Baker is so proud to have her little brother join her at school!
