All I have to say about this is THANK GOD THIS WOMAN WILL NOT BE ON THE BEACH THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Laura and Jeanie will be swapping places this year. Different baby and different momma. Ween, the beach adds another level of understanding your selfishness with being a mom (and a human for goodness sakes!) Its so hard to fight your desires at the beach (do what you want; what you've always done before) and do what needs to be done for your child. This was a HUGE wake up call for me and I'm sure Laura can vouch for this too. Just keep in mind that no matter what, your child comes first and so does her needs (food, nap, bed times). Be sure to give your spouse an "hour or two" of "downtime" and somewhat of a Vacation. If you share the load it won't be so hard. Nothing really changes about your family dynamics except your location. =) Its easier to ignore a screaming baby when you're looking out at the ocean and hearing the waves. LOL! ;)
This is not ment to be a downer, but just a bit of motherly advice for the weeks to come. *love*
Love the beach in the evening... I know it's a NMB coast, but it's all good.
Oh I just can't wait...... this will be many of our evenings.
