Last Sunday we drove down to Rockport, Massachusetts for the day. Rick grew up vacationing there, as did his mom. His parents (Nan and Grandpa) were there for several days, so we went for a visit. They had a nice ocean view room, and Cate thoroughly enjoyed sitting up on the deck and watching the waves and all the people on the beach down below. We did go down on the beach to see the water up close and to chase sea gulls around.
We also walked around the corner and down to Bear Skin Neck, the area of Rockport where all the shops are located. Of course, we had to go to Helmut's (the struedel (sp?) place) and sit on the deck while eating pastries. And of course, we had to call Rick's sister, Aunt Chrissy, to tell her we were at Helmut's to make her jealous - it's probably her favorite place in the world.
Cate and I also got to try out the new Ergo backpack carrier that we bought the day before. Cate was a little unsure of it at first, but I think it's going to work out just fine. And it's much more comfortable for me!

Give her that croissant!! You all really are mean. First, it's the taunting phone calls to rub in that you were at Helmut's and I was working. Second, you are teasing that poor little baby with that piece of baked heaven and not giving her any. MEAN!!
