Don’t let the adorable curls, squeezy cheeks, and chubby little toes fool you. This girl is a firecracker and she can hold her own with these boys! Mary’s little girl Greta was one of the highlights of our trip. I’m not around little girls all that much. So what a breath of fresh air to be reminded that girlhood is no tea party with pink princesses. Well, sometimes it is, but more often it is mermaids (who bite on occasion), singing at the top of your lungs and dancing down low, followed by sneak-bites of your ice cream cone.

And she is two. Barely. So much personality and sweetness packed into that feisty girl! I love her.

  1. This looks like such a fun trip- and the kids all seem to be in heaven. What a cute little girl! That last pic with Oliver where her feet aren’t even touching the sand is awesome.

  2. These pictures are so precious. It reminds me of the beach time with you, your brother and sister and your father. The ocean is so healing for the mind and body. I’m glad that the children are able to experience the awesomeness with wonderful parents and friends. They will remember these trips!

  3. I have been dying to visit the outer banks for some time…but it fills up so quickly and gets so expensive in the summer! Love all the cute hats in this post!

  4. Looking at your photos makes me feel as if I’ve been on a beach vacation! Thanks, Lauren!
    (More, please!!!)

  5. Awww! You are sweet to do this little Greta post! Pretty sure she is the feistiest of all of them! A trouble maker for sure!

    And the feeling is mutual…I’ve heard quite a few “Where’s Lauren Mama?” since we’ve been back.

    Love you!
