I personally can't wait until a summer vacation to the beach. We are just going to go to my parents beach house in Delaware, nothing special, but so exciting! I don't care if it takes us 2 hrs to pack up, park, haul our gear to the beach, just for 30 mins until baby has a meltdown and we have to leave. I can't wait to put LOs toes in the water! I mostly can't wait for starting a family vacationing tradition.
Re: What are you looking forward to in the first year?
This!! I freak out at the thought of me DH and DS going on a family trip to the beach...I literally get so excited I squeal. Also DH and I have only taken one trip since we've been together (8 years!!) and I sort of feel like now that we're a family we have to go on family vacations. I'm already planning a trip to Canada!!

I don't know if this sounds corny, but kisses and giggles! For her to smile and giggle when she recognizes me or DH.
And to take her to MY family's house for our annual christmas eve party. Last year was his family's turn to have us for Christmas eve and this year we aren't traveling the 7 hours north
I'm pretty sure his mom is going to be wicked jealous that she's going to spend her first christmas with my family, but they're getting two in a row (they're visiting us at christmas, but my parents couldn't make the trip this year). Hee hee. There's no way anyone can argue it next year 
Our first family vacation (where ever that might be to)
Taking her to the DC zoo and other National parks
So many things I can't list them all!!
