SR part 2

Days in Sunriver have been great! The weather's been spectacular, likely mid 80's.

Its been nice to be away from home and not worry about needing to be "here" or "there" and I know Matt's enjoyed the time off work. We've had relatively mellow days, waking up between 830-1030, really whenever Cade decides. We've kept the "we're on vacation" mind set and have let her regress a little from her routine. Recently she's been sleeping through the night like a champ but we think she's been getting cold because each night we've been here, she's gotten up and I've been too tired to do anything so I've just brought her to bed with us. She has pretty much immediately gone back to sleep so we wake up in the morning to her crawling on us, poking our faces, counting our teeth, and pulling hair.

Cade's gotten better about her bike seat, only fussing sometimes for getting her helmet on, and has learned to just go to sleep in it when she's tired. Today, I grabbed a giraffe for our ride and it worked like a charm and she slept the whole way to our destination.

Yesterday we visited the South Pool in the morning and went riding to the marina in the evening. Matt decided that he wanted to rent a canoe and paddle down the river, so that was today's big adventure. We bought Cadence her first life jacket, and as cute as she is in it, its bulky and she hates it. She spent a majority of our 2+ hour canoe ride asleep, some in my arms, some in the boat. Other moments she fussed since she had no where to get down and play, and get her jacket off.  She happily splashed her feet in the water. During the canoe ride she also had her first encounter up close and personal with some ducks, it turns out that they have a shared interest in Cheerios. After paddling down the river to the take out point, we boarded an old school bus for the ride back to our bikes. It was entertaining be on the bus since we haven't driven anywhere in a few days, most everything here is a 5 minute bike ride away. Once back to our bikes, we loaded a very sleepy baby back into her bike seat for the short ride back. We had a mellow afternoon, letting Cade play with toys and have lunch before hitting the pool again.

Needless to say, she's exhausted from all the excitement and she's sound asleep in her pack n play. There's just too much to see and do in Sunriver for her!

Although the trip has been great, it'll be nice to see family and friends when we come home. GL, we're home on Sunday! :)
