A few weeks ago, Lexi invited Tess & I along with Jill & her 18 month old daughter Claire to her parents' cottage for a couple days. We had grand time!
Before leaving to the camp, Lexi could not believe how much Jill & I packed for a two day cottage outing...she thought we would all be able to fit in one vehicle...Jill & I laughed and said "Just wait Lexi, you will not believe all the extra stuff you need to pack when you have a kid." Needless to say even though we had an SUV and a wagon we still needed to take two vehicles to get to the camp.
Tess was so excited about going to the beach, all she would ask every 15 minutes was "are we there yet?", when finally she got a whiff of the sea air and said " I smell the beach, we're here!"
We all took turns cooking and we all ate very well! I do not know why, but I had never made Tess an egg salad sandwich but thanks to little Claire sharing her sandwich, Tess became a huge fan.
Jill & I enjoyed watching Lexi take care of the girls....notice picture above as Lexi babysits kids as Jill & I are nowhere in sight but on the beach sunbathing!
Tess really liked the idea of sleeping in the same bed with Mom at night, she really felt like a big girl as she is still sleeping in a crib. Mom was not a huge fan as she was always up soooo early, striking up a conversation at 5am where she usually is only getting up at 7:30am back home.
