-beautiful beach
-warm weather
-lots of cute sun dresses that i can FIT into
-on that note... my pre-baby body back in place
-Baby Hope there with us (don't judge me...Yes I want to go and yes I want to take her)
Come on people, I'm not asking for much.
I tried to talk Mat into taking one as soon as Baby Hope gets here - yes with her. If we are going to be tired with a newborn, might as well be tired in tropical paradise, right? I was informed that it's not a great idea to take newborns on a vacation (something to do with ears and schedules...) I tried really hard to prove him wrong, even eliciting advice from a pediatrician friend, but it didn't work (thanks a lot Beth...)
So for the next 3 months that the dr. won't allow me to leave PV and the following 4- 6 that I can't take an infant with me to an amazingly incredible beach...
here is my pretend vacation:
A tropical destination.... (really any beach that is warm, beautiful and doesn't have vendors)
.this is what I will be drinking (on the vacay, not in real life...yet)
or maybe this...
(*again no judging)
I'll be wearing cute outfits like this...
or this..
And I will be with my favorite person:
(honey - leave the north face at home... you won't need it, trust me...)
So here's to my tropical vacation while I sit in my cozy home in PV waiting for winter to come to an end... If I keep thinking warm thoughts, it will warm up outside, right?
Until then, feel free to pass on any tips on wonderful vacation spots. We ARE going on one next fall...He already promised me that!
that first dress is awesome- where is it from?
ReplyDeleteoh, i am totally with you. someone the other day was talking about a trip they just took to cancun and i was more envious than i've ever been in my life. i hate winter. i want to wear sun dresses and flip flops and go for walks on the beach. someday.
ReplyDeleteI want to be on a beach in the sun, and it doesn't matter where. But without my kids *Don't judge me :)
ReplyDeleteOh and I took my 6 week old on a plane trip and she did great! But yeah any sooner would probably be rough on you and baby hope.
ReplyDeleteI see no reason for you not to take a newborn on vacation. These are some of the truest words I have ever read "If we are going to be tired with a newborn, might as well be tired in tropical paradise, right? " I am totally going to try that one on Ron when we gets home tonight. I actually think the younger the baby is the better they travel. Everything is new to them so an airplane or sweet resort is just as much home to them as home. I say go for it!! Afton flew at four weeks and she never even noticed!
ReplyDeleteHawaii! I love it there
ReplyDeleteYou need a babymoon my friend. Just take a little "break" vacation. You are probably not supposed to be flying to the beach, but you should have Mat take you on a weekend vacation to the Plaza or something. I mean, you totally deserve it. Grant and I went to Chicago to visit family on our babymoon, but towards the end, I would have settled for a nice stay downtown or a weekend of shopping and eating on the Plaza. Tell Mat he needs to get on this plan...stat.
