I wish.
..............but, this kind of camping.
I am not quite sure how I feel about it.
We are going on an EXTREMELY overdue vacation in October and my husband requested a camping trip. I already know that I will have 6 sleepless nights and that I will be covered with mosquito bites but I am okay with it because I know after 6 nights it will be over and we will have some amazing memories.
I am excited for the memories....
-running after a toddler outside
-swimming
-biking
-walking
-exploring nature
-reading books at night by lantern light
-and all kinds of other activities that I cannot wait to plan
But I am oh so dreading the nights. At home we put Wren in her crib, shut the door, and she goes to sleep. In the tent we will all be in the same area, the same
Anyone have any tips on camping with a toddler or camping in general? I know my husband and Wren will absolutely love this trip, I just hope I can relax, enjoy it, and get some rest.
Talk to her about the trip in advance and let her know you'll be sleeping together. If she knows what to expect (even at her young age), she won't be confused. Maybe even mention that you only sleep together when you're camping... so she doesn't expect the same arrangement when you get back home. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteGreat advice Heather. I will definitely do that!
