Vacation!

Last week, we enjoyed a much needed getaway at the beach. An oceanfront room and the familiar sound of the crashing waves worked wonders on erasing the crazy stress we've been under during the past few weeks.

The view from our balcony, can we say B-E-A-utiful?!?!

We even had two rocking chairs, which Hunter loved.

Of course, the Hampton Heavenly Bed wasn't too shabby either :)

Hunter wasn't so sure about the whole "walking on the beach" thing.

But, he later decided that the beach was kind of cool,
as long as Mommy and Daddy packed toys.

Ugh.

Yesterday, at BJs Wholesale (like Sam's Club but better), a woman stopped me in the parking lot as I was about to get Hunter out of the car. She smiled and politely asked, "When are you due?"

Well, if I wasn't motivated to lose the remaining 12 pounds of baby weight residing around my midsection, I am now. Ugh.

Where is Thumbkin, Where is Thumbkin?

...Here I am!!! Yep, you guessed it! Despite our best paci attempts, Hunter has found his thumb and has enjoyed sucking his favorite little digit for the past two weeks. When he woke up from his afternoon nap, I could hear the smacking from the other room. I figured he was just gumming his little hand like he always does when he loses his paci, so I went in to pop the paci back in his mouth hoping for a few more minutes of "nap time". To my surprise, Hunter was happily gumming his thumb. He's no pro thumb-sucker yet, but it won't be long!
