Camping on the Cape - Day 3

Our second night didn't go as smoothly as the first with the girls, but it wasn't horrible. Abigail woke up around 2:00 in the morning wanting milk. The thing was, Mommy had to leave the tent to get it, which caused Abigail to freak out a bit. She called out for Mommy quite a bit, which woke Sarah up. Once Abigail got her milk she calmed down and then we took care of Sarah. Other than that things went well.

Friday morning started off early again, around 6:00. We cleaned up a bit and then headed out for a small breakfast. We visited the Brewster General Store. We ate donuts in front of the store and I enjoyed a much needed cup of coffee.

After breakfast we popped Sarah in the pack-in-play, and put Abigail in her booster seat with crayons and post cards. Thankfully breaking down camp went a lot faster than setting it up. After breaking down the tent and packing up we headed for home around 10:00 AM.

The girls slept for a bit (Abigail for about 30 minutes and Sarah for a bulk of the trip). The first thing we did when we got home was give the girls a nice warm bath. Later in the afternoon all four of us took a refreshing nap.

We had such a fun time during our first family camping trip. We are glad for the many memories we made and look forward to doing this again in the future!

The trip looked like a ton of fun! I can't wait to take our first camping trip with our little guy!

Hello Jonathan, Diana and Girls,

It most certainly appeared that the four of you had a very wonderful time camping! This made me miss my camping days at Frendale Acres Campground in Lee, New Hampshire. I hope this is the first of many wonderful trips to come.

Take care,
Lillian
