Like I promised, here is a photo recap of the rest of our great little trip.
From Jacksonville, we headed to Hilton Head, SC to see Jay and Laura and their great new home! We were only there one night, but that was long enough for Kate to fall in love with Laura (and their sweet dog, Murphy).
When we got there, the boys went to hit some golf balls and Laura and I took Kate to the pool and playground at their little neighborhood common area. She had lots of fun, and maybe if she wasn't sleep deprived, she would have sat in her stroller (or even stayed on my hip) on the long walk back home. But why do that when there was alligator infested marsh to explore??
Sunrise view off their back porch the next morning. So pretty and different from southeast Florida!
Laura and Jay went to work, and we left shortly after when Kate was ready to nap and drove to Savannah to go to Ian and Lauren's.
She was SO happy to wake up and walk in a house with a playmate, a dog, and toys galore! And I was pretty excited for a baby proof home where miss Kate could run free ;)
Every time Aubrey (17 months) sat here, Kate (15 months) really wanted to sit and cuddle with her :)
Then we went to their park where Aubrey taught Kate how to slide all by herself!
Silly Kate - she has SO much personality!
Aunt Lynne came by to visit too
Kate pretty much RUNS everywhere she goes now. She is not cautious and falls often :( That's just her. Then, at the park she was the youngest and had lots of other big kids to keep up with, so of course, she ran and tripped on that stupid mulch and kept falling. At one point, we looked over and her eye was puffy with a scrape from the mulch and she hadn't even cried! So we tried to take it easy after that...
Kate has this chair at home and by the end of the trip, taught Aubrey how you're really supposed to sit on it ;) Sorry Lauren!
They played so well together and even started sharing their snacks and kisses!
Woke up to chilly weather, but they still want to play at the water table :)
Sweet Aubrey
The next day we went downtown and had to take some pictures at our fountain (where we got engaged) at Forsyth park. I promise that rainbow on the left is really in the picture! Didn't even notice until we put them on the computer
And she's off!
More time on slides!
The 6 of us - we can't wait for many, many more memories together! I just know these baby girls will grow up close.
Down by the river
Such good daddies
And then we got to see Laura one more time! She works in downtown Savannah, so after we STUFFED ourselves at the Lady and Son's buffet (Paula Deen's restaurant. Enough said), we met up with her while the little ones danced in front of a dinner crowd to live music. I promise, that happened...and it was as cute as you are imagining :)
Of course those are just a few pictures, but if you're still reading this then that's probably enough for now! I'll try to post again soon because so many fun things are happening!
