If you haven't heard, we bought a new toy this summer! We finally found time to take our 2009 Palomino pop-up camper out for its first camping trip (under our ownership, that is.) We spent the weekend of September 10-12 at Meramec State Park with my parents. We worried only about getting ourselves, the camper, Annie, and Wade to the campground - my parents took care of all the meals and even let Annie sleep in their camper. Ryan's parents, Bill and Terrie, also came down for dinner on Saturday night.
It only rained Friday night while we were sleeping and we were left with mild weather the rest of the weekend. We took several walks and Wade had his first real hike.
He "talked" a lot in the backpack until he fell asleep. We cushioned him with a couple sweatshirts. Wade did great camping this weekend which is good since he has a lot of camping in his future! He slept great in the camper the first night and during his naps. He had a bit of a rough night the second night. He still slept until 7 am but we think he has a bit of a cold and/or is teething - either way he tossed and turned super loudly. Actually we think that he may have gotten a decent night's rest but we sure didn't! It seemed like he was shaking the whole camper!
Laid back in the lawn chair! (Who are we kidding, this was just for the photo op - he still loves that exersaucer more - and it did come on the camping trip!)
