Last weekend, we took Jace on his first camping trip and let me tell you....it was quite interesting. About a month ago, I broke my foot carrying Jace down the stairs. Apparently, I did a great job because I broke 5 bones (one just in 4 pieces) and had to have a plate and 4 screws put in to hold it together. So, you can only imagine the excitement and difficulty camping was for me with sleeping in a tent with a baby that loves his crib and a broken foot.
Jace had a pretty good time being outside. He did manage to get himself a little sun (even though mommy put sunscreen on his face...she promises!) Night time was a whole different story. It took quite awhile getting Jace to sleep and then at about 2:00 am, he decided he was awake. He just cried and cried. Luckily, our tent was quite aways away from everyone else so they couldn't hear him. I spent the majority of the night up with him while Lance snored away.
