The Flanneries on Sucia

We were thrilled to be able to reconnect with James and Robin this summer. They just welcomed baby Declan to their family and Skylar is adjusting well to being a big sister. They braved this three-day camping trip when Declan was only six weeks old. Kudos to them!
 The sunsets on Sucia this summer have been consistently breathtaking.
 Skylar (20 months) and Charlotte got along really well with each other - phew!
 Eben and I had the pleasure of holding baby Declan and reliving the experience of living with a newborn. Declan is a super relaxed baby and didn't mind sleeping in a laundry basket on this trip.
 Happy mama!
 James took the kids exploring in the tidepools both mornings. Very cool.
 We explored the island on foot - and wheels - as it was our best shot at getting the kids to nap. Worked like a charm! But we ended up pretty tired - Sucia has lots of hills.
 What can I say? Skylar, you are rocking those sunglasses!
 Edison invented a new game of toss the buoy in the water and drag it back - hours of fun.
 And he is smitten with his very own headlamp.
