Going camping

One of the first things on hubby's to-do list once he got home was to take C camping.  We all went out together and lil' peanut and I hung out for awhile.  We played at the playground, cooked dinner over the fire and roasted smores.  We got all the best parts of camping in before heading home to our beds. :)  C and Daddy have plenty of oreos and a movie or two to complete their camping experience.  And hubby says spending time in my grandparents' trailer skewed my views of camping.  Pshhh...I give you an actual conversation...

 

C:  The most important thing about camping are the oreos.

Hubby:  I thought it was the guy time?

C:  Ok, guy time is first.  The second most important thing is oreos!

I haven't been on a camping trip in awhile.  I guess C has some responsibilities nowadays.  It was pretty cute watching him stack the firewood.

My attempt at a family photo.  By the way, hubby and C love it when I set up the self-timer.  I mean it absolutely thrills them. ;)

Lil' peanut makes this face whenever somthing really amazes him.  He does it when we close the garage door at home.  Every. single. time.  Ha!

Another new face.  "Stinky!"

So, the fire kind of freaked the little guy out.  I think the popping noises are what scared him.  But, you know what it got me?  My first genuine cuddles.  This was the first time he has ever really, truly snuggled into me like that.  Full on, wrapped his arms around me tight and laid his head on my shoulder.  I loved it.

Me and my boys!
