Jax' First Camping Trip


hangin out waaayyy tooo early
naptime             at the "beach"


setting up the duckie pool

This past weekend we hooked up the trailer and headed to Lake Nacimiento for camping! Jax did amazingly well! He handled the 3 hour drive like a champ (ok...a little (lot) longer than 3 hours cause we got a flat on the trailer and had to wait for a new spare in Paso)  Once we got to the lake, we realized how HOT it was...thankfully there was a breeze that required Justin to move and re-level the trailer so we could cool it down a bit as there weren't any hook-ups for us spoiled trailer camping types. ;)
Jax spent most of the time in a diaper or swim trunks because it was so hot.  And he continued to be a good sport through the whole thing...he even "unloaded" in his swim trunks for us--with out diaper protection! Needless to say--we threw those dang shorts away...there was NO way I was packing them back home to clean...yuck.  He wasn't a huge fan of the waves crashing on the beach-they kept loudly splashing his face...so Dad hooked him up with his own little duckie pool.  For our first outing, it was a success. Next time we'll make sure that there's hook ups to keep our boy cool...or we'll just head to the beach like we usually do!
