Every morning Katie pops into our room at first light ready to hit the beach and outlines her plans for the day which typically include the beach, the pool and a lot of sand. She was dressed, had eaten breakfast and was ready to go to the beach this morning before 7:30 am. She barely managed to contain herself until Daddy took her down there around 8:30 am. Daddy just commented that we might as well call this "Katie's Vacation" since the rest of us are pretty much just along for the ride. Amen. Today the weather was outstanding so we got some quality time in at the beach. "Rocketship Katie" must have run 5 miles chasing waves out to sea and then letting them "chase" her back up the beach. Whenever she'd gear up to run after the waves, she'd spread her arms out and take off down the beach yelling "Rocketship Katie!!" She had a ball! Caroline chilled out under the beach umbrella and took it all in. The girls did manage to get naps in this afternoon which was good for everyone...until Katie had an accident in Mama and Daddy's bed. Good thing the condo is equipped with a full size washer and dryer! More friends came down to join us in SC for the weekend so we went back over to Big Caroline's tonight so the Daddies could have a BBQ cook off. We think our Daddy's ribs were by far the best!! It was a lot of fun and a late night. Katie and Caroline went to bed without much complaint. Mama and Daddy are exhausted - we'd love to go to bed too but we have to wait until we have clean sheets...oh the joys of parenthood!!
