Above are pictures we took on our morning in Eureka Springs.
Ava was a fish in the pool on vacation! I think she spent more time under water than above and we had to keep reminding her to breathe and blow bubbles. She was constantly jumping in the water, getting out, jumping in, getting out, swimming under water, getting out... We are so proud of the progress she has made this summer in the water. Brecken, on the other hand, had kind of a love/hate relationship with the water. I think he wanted to be in it, but he didn't want anyone to hold him or bother him. He just wanted to do things on his own, which is pretty much impossible.
We took a short boat trip on Thursday. Maybe a few years from now, we can rent a boat for the day, but with B-man being so young we just can't stay out that long. He was exhausted and cried a lot of the time and then finally fell asleep right before we got back to the marina. Ava enjoyed the ride, but was afraid the fish would get her toes when she got in the water! She got in with Nanny and wrapped herself around my mom very tight!
The night before leaving...
We had a great time! But I am definitely glad to be home where it's easy to put the kids to bed and we have a bit of a routine. Now it's back to reality. Swimming lessons, gymnastics, playdates, trips to the library, naps, toys everywhere...
