First Trip to the Lake

I remember my last trip to the lake.........packing took all of 10 minutes to throw some crap in a bag and go. Once, we actually threw our things in a trash bag in a spur of the moment decision to go when we had just moved out of our house. We decided to go on a Friday evening, and were on the road in a hour.

This particular road trip took about 2 days of planning and an entire day of packing for this new mom. The Envoy was packed from floor to ceiling with the pack n play, stroller, boppy, bouncy, monitor, bottles, clothes and all other equioment for this little 11 lb person. Then my best little friend decided he did not want to take a nap and be held all day. So I busted out the baby back pak and carried him around like Micheal Keeton from the movie "Mr. Mom". I've learned that this little device is becoming one of my fav's. So far it's been my only solution to cleaning the house.

So off we go to the lake for our first family vacation with cousins Melissa and Ryan. After a long day of packing and crying I was ready for bed upon arrival. Saturday was wonderful though and we spent our time shopping, swimming, eating, and enjoying some much deserved vino! Sam did very well with his napping and we all had a great time. Brant and I decided to stay two extra days. 
So far we're really enjoying Daddy's week of vaction.
