We had the absolute best day today! We started the morning by going to see Brant Point Lighthouse. We played at the beach and then I rocked Rosie to bed and she took her nap in my arms while David and Atticus played on the rocks and watched people fish! They even let Atticus touch the fish they caught, he was loving it. I was in absolute heaven rocking Rosie while she slept on me!!! She does this a lot but each time its just as good. This time was especially sweet since we got to watch David and Atticus, we were on the beach, and weather was perfect. Anyways, then we went to the aquarium and science museum… the aquarium was definitely a bigger hit than the science museum since they had little sharks swimming around. They apparently don’t break skin if you get bit buuuut… I was still watching Atticus like a hawk. We came back to the hotel for the kids to take a nap and when they woke up we headed out for the evening. We went to the Wharf, got food, and then went to Children’s Beach. Atticus played on the playground with other kids and we played with Rosie! Some kids were letting Atticus skateboard and we learned that he is surprisingly good for such a cautious lil kid. There was the biggest full moon and we played on the beach til the sun went down. Now the kids are asleep and we are packing up to leave tomorrow morning! It was such a fun lil trip I loved it so much!! I don’t know why this is but anytime we go on a trip I always feel closer to my kids (and husband) – but especially the kiddos. I love experiencing new things them!
I have one more round of pics to share tomorrow! π hope you have a good day!!!! xoxox
So fun! I love all those houses. So charming π Thanks for sharing!

These pictures seriously have me wanting to visit Nantucket. And my heart just melted when I read what you said about being closer to your children after traveling with them. That is so sweet! We have 2 kids, similar ages to Atticus & Rosie, and we’ve traveled with them some, but our baby girl is not a very good flyer so since having her, we’ve slowed down and actually cancelled 2 trips. Your blog always gives me that travel itch though and I start thinking, “eh, we could do it – Andi Rose may scream the entire flight, but it could be worth it.” hahaha – She’s 14 months old, and she hasn’t flown in a few months so maybe she’s over her hatred of airplanes now.

I loved this post and the last one Amber! What a beautiful little trip =) I’m going to see if my husband and I can sneak in a quick trip to a lighthouse before the summer is over. Big hugs to you and your sweet family! xoxo Christine

Sounds like an amazing little getaway! I’d like to think I’d let a shark bite me or my (future) children if I was told that it couldn’t break the skin… but YIKES, I think I’d be way too scared haha! Now that I’ve got a baby coming in a little over three months, I’m even more obsessed with reading about the fun you have with your beautiful kiddos – if that was even possible π We’ll be moving to Copenhagen before the baby comes, and it’s reassuring to see a family that doesn’t shy away from traveling with little ones. Thanks for being such an inspiration!! xoxo
I am so in love with these pics, so precious! How do you get the photos to look matted and some what grainy I love this look!
Sounds like great bonding time. I’m glad you feel closer to your kids when you go on trips together π

Atticus and Rosie are so adorable! I always want to know what Atticus is wearing since by boy is the same age (=
Could you let me know where his outfits are from?
Gorgeous pictures as always Amber! I take so much inspiration from the way you dress Atticus for my little boy, sometimes there isn’t as much variety and for boys and tonnes for girls (in Australia anyway) but he always looks so bright and colourful which is what I try to do as well π
I love lighthouses, I always did and I can’t wait to visit one on my next Summer holidays. Beautiful photos, your family is so sweet and inspiring. π
