Stuart rarely has a weekend off, but in September he ended up on call on a Thursday night, followed by a golden weekend. So, he was "off" (post-call) all day Friday, then off all weekend until Monday morning! We were able to go on a mini-vacation to Emerald Isle, where some good friends have a house that we could use. And those good friends came along, which made our time away all the more sweet.
On the way to Wake Med to pick up dad after his 24 hour call. Stuart was such a good sport to just hop in the car and try to nap on the way to the beach (post-call, he usually crashes as soon as he gets home and sleeps for 6-8 hours).
First order of business upon arrival: nap time!
Second order of business: see the ocean!
Casey (with baby pea pod Reagan in her belly!), Wen, Stuart with Baby James, Chris & Jill all the way down there on the end. I wish we would have thought to get a group photo!
Sand-buried for the first time (by his dad, of course).
Aaaaaand tasting sand for the first time.
Sweetest beach baby had a great time. He was not entirely sure about the waves, though we did play right at the edge of the sea and let James sit as the waves came up. He obviously didn't mind the sand (as evidenced above). But he mostly enjoyed getting attention from some of his very favorite people all weekend. We were so grateful for this weekend away with OUR favorite people, and came home feeling refreshed.
