All Camped Out

We have been camping the last two weekends in a row and I am all camped out. Camping is a bit more difficult with a toddler and a baby, though not as bad as some might think. (really Kate, it's not that bad:)) It is a bit dirty and getting naps and bedtimes to work can be a bit tricky, but good memories are to be had which makes it all worth it.

The first weekend we camped at the beach where it was cold at night, so the boys were bundled up nice and warm. They actually slept better those nights than at home!


The next weekend we were at Cresap Bay in Washington with a 3 other families. Here are 7 of the 10 children getting ready for one of the many rides around the campground that we did...over and over and over again. There were 8 adults and 10 children ranging in ages from 6 months to 5 years. A tad outnumbered were we? Why yes, we were.
One of the families brought a boat for everyone's enjoyment and it amazingly held all of us. Nik had a blast on the ski tube with his buddy Wyatt and daddy. He also went with mama who kept asking the driver to go faster. We were going out of the wake and bouncing all over the place, good thing for the infant life jacket handles! Crazy Mama.
The rest of the time the kids found various ways to amuse themselves, and us.
This little guy is one of Nik's new buddies. They were cracking us up with their belly bumping:)


Fun times, but i think i am done getting up in the cold of night to nurse a baby in my sleeping bag. There is always next year....unless i am pregnant again.....which i am not....but one never knows.....

I loved the photo of all the little ones lined up on their bikes, etc. How fun!

too cute...I might think about it.

I'll have to do a trial run with just the family for one night and see how it goes.
