"camping"

 this may surprise you (ha!) but i'm not very outdoorsy
 noah and hazel have been saying that they want to go camping this summer
but since we were moving and we have a new baby and i didn't really want to...we haven't gone
then last night as i heard noah reminiscing about the one time he went camping as a 2 year old
(not that he would have remembered)
i decided we'd go camping
but in the backyard
so those of us who needed to sleep in our own beds could
 we roasted marshmallows on the grill
(hazel just ate hers on a stick)
 and enjoyed some smores
 delicous
 hazel was all pumped to sleep in the tent with michael and noah
until i told her it might get cold
she backed out immediately 
so she and olive went to bed like normal
but noah got to stay up with us inside watching mythbusters
until he and michael went to bed in the tent
michael said it was really fun just the two of them
they read bedtime stories with flashlights
and even slept in
successful camping trip!

SO fun, Frenchie! If you think of it, you've either been prego or caring for a newborn a lot of the time since Noah was two. It makes sense that you waited. Good for you for supporting it (from the comfort of your own bed). :)
