No week-long jaunt this year with the new baby, but we did manage to squeeze in a mini-vacation to Cape Charles with Stephen's brother and his family. I wasn't sure I could handle a week of sleepless nights if Miss Caroline decided she didn't like sleeping somewhere besides her bedroom, but I figured we'd manage two nights. It turns out that she didn't mind sleeping somewhere else, and she did really well. No sun for her, though, so I didn't spend too much time on the beach...just a few quick trips out while she slept and Auntie Anju hung out with her.
But Stephen and the kids had a great time playing. The kids enjoyed the shallow, calm beach. They found shells and crabs and even a ten-foot wooden post which they imagined to be their boat. We were on the Chesapeake Bay side of the peninsula, so the beach was different than the ocean-side beach we've experienced at the Outer Banks. Much quieter. And almost completely deserted. Very relaxing.
