Just a heads up, I'm camping next week so I won't be posting. If somebody wants to do it for me, awesome. Otherwise see you in two.
QOTW: speaking of camping, do you go? What type of camping do you like best?

QOTW: love camping. We usually go 2-3 times per year. As of now we still use tents and all that, but we're looking to buy a pop-up trailer in a few years. We had one growing up and I loved it. Plus a lot easier to entertain LO's on a rainy day in one of those.

I gotta say I'm surprised by the number of non campers lol. Maybe it's more of a Canadian thing? Cuz I know so many campers.

Here is LO playing with my shoe as it was a car, noises and all!
QOTW: I love to camp and DH never went camping as a kid. I do everything from sleeping under the stars to tents to trailers. Last year we went to Australia for the holidays and to the beach the day after Christmas and rented a cabin right next to the beach. Loved it and a good start to camping for DH.

Playing on a suitcase that I was trying to unpack.
QOTW: we are campers! I only went with my grandparents as a kid, not often, because my dad is not the outdoors type. DH and his brothers grew up camping most weekends and that includes on the beach fishing all night. I love being out where no one else is and love the peacefulness of the beach in the dark with the water.

@Robeano not just Canadians! We are big campers However, almost none of my female friends will camp. I spent my entire childhood camping with my Mom and sister (my Dad doesn't camp ha!) My Mom was raised backpacking and camping every weekend, so it runs on that side of the family. DH loves it too. We do tent camping, but we are thinking about getting a pop-up trailer after baby girl comes. G already loves camping too and I'm so happy about that
We celebrated G's 2nd birthday on Saturday. He loved his cupcake.
