Camping

Over Memorial Day we packed up the rv, and headed out camping. Rich and I were hopeful that this would be the year Evs would sleep so soundly thru the night, in her own bunk. We figured she would be exhausted from all of the activity, and crash the entire night. Wrong. 
Friday into Saturday morning it was the same shenanigans as last year, just a lot more words involved. From 3:30 am to 5:50 am, the three of us covered what seemed like every topic under the sun, and were also utilized as jungle gyms. Finally after almost 2 1/2 hours, Evs slept, and we did not. Sleeping with your toddler in between you, in the form of the letter H, is less then comfortable. 
After morning wake up, it was beautiful outside, so Evs took full advantage of family playtime at the campground. Think she would have been ready for a nap, but nope, just some quiet down time chillin in the rv. Then more playing, ice cream, and night night. Well she insisted on sleeping in our bed, which lasted until 2 am. We all were uncomfortable in such a cramped space. Evs was transferred to her bunk, where she slept til 8:00. Sunday was cool, rainy, and confined to the rv. We packed up a day early, and headed home to get sleep, and somewhat of a routine back. Yes this mom is anal, into structure, and into a routine. Helps keep my sanity, work life, and home life run smoothly. So after some long naps, and sleeping in our own beds, we fell back into our groove. Thank goodness. Felt like we had a newborn again for those two nights, and realized how much we appreciated sleep. Fun weekend, fingers crossed one of these days Evs will be able to sleep they the night camping.

Running, and racing when it's rainy outside.
Dozing off driving home from the campground, all while eating a chip. Deliriously tired girl.
