Mr. & Mrs. Vandebilt + kids

We decided to mix things up today and head to the big pool for the morning. Wild, I know. There’s been a lot of pool time this week. I can’t say I’m thrilled about it – pools are not my favourite – but the kids love it. So 🤷‍♀️. Charlie even got to participate in the resort activity while we were at the pool. He was so excited to get to hop around with a bingo chip between his knees, and he even managed to win. I don’t even know how we are related.

We spent the afternoon at our own pool while Nora napped. On the cold floor. Naked. Her choice, not mine.

Charlie took advantage of the afternoon pool time to try and perfect his swimming without floaties. He is showing an uncharacteristic amount of determination to learn how to do this. We are awfully proud of him.

Once she woke up I finally convinced everyone to head to the beach. We went back to the beachside restaurant for dinner. A restaurant right on the beach is just the greatest thing ever when you have kids. No one cares if they’re running around, there’s lots to entertain them and there’s usually other kids around. We spent the evening playing with the new buckets, swinging on the enormous swing and dancing to the live band.

The kids had one last dip in the pool before bed and we called it a day.
