1st Camping Trip

Janie went on her first camping trip this weekend.  It was a short 24-hour adventure to a campground just outside of South Lake Tahoe.

We made a little spot for her to hang out under the trees.  That’s our tent in the background.

Temps were in the 90s but napping under the shade was nice and breezy.

She got to sleep in a tent and shared a sleeping bag with Mommy when it got cold.

This is Janie hanging out in front of the campfire.

Janie seemed to enjoy the great outdoors and she was in a great mood the whole day.  We also managed to get her home without a single mosquito bite!  Success!

Little Angel

Daddy started his Paternity Leave today and it was my first day back at work.  Little Janie was still asleep when I kissed her “goodbye” this morning.  It was one of the hardest things have had to do.

Perfect Passenger…almost.

Our flight home was pretty smooth thanks to our good little passenger and an unusually short 4.5-hour flight home.  Janie sat quietly on Mommy’s seat while we stowed our belongings.

She also finished a bottle and used her pacifier during take-off, slept for about 2.5 hours on Mommy’s lap, and finished another bottle during the landing.

Only problem was that she pooped when we landed and had to wait an extra 20 minutes before getting to the gate.  That’s when she cried and cried and the flight attendant allowed Daddy to take her to the lavatory while everyone had to remain seated.

Overall, it was a successful flight and a wonderful first vacation for Little Janie.

Waaaah!

We had a rough day today.  Janie seems to be going through her 3-month growth spurt this past week but today seemed especially bad.  She was extra grouchy and just wanted to be held today.  When Daddy came home from work, he was able to help me and I was able to finish making dinner.  We had just enough time to eat before she woke up again.  Daddy went in to soothe her again and 20 minutes later I found them in the bedroom like this.

Poor baby (and Daddy too).
