"Mom, I'm ready to go!!!"
One more week until we arrive in the Bahamas! I can't wait to feel warmth on my skin, bask in the heat and humidity and run my toes through the sand. I'm usually not the beach holiday type but after having such a terribly cold summer coupled with our trials in the fall, I can't wait to relax and let the sun kiss my face. The real question is how will we manage travel with the baby. I absolutely would not go the all-inclusive route so we've rented a villa that backs out onto the botanical gardens for our first week in Nassau. Just me, bebe and Chris for a quiet week of togetherness. After that my family will join us for our second week away.
But oh the preparation!! I find it to (usually) be the female who does most of the planning and arrangements so I'm quite used to figuring things out myself. Traveling with Jude is a whole new animal though. We've pared down the list of essentials to the minimum and I still find I'm packing three times more stuff for him than for me and Chris combined! Then I start hoping and praying he makes it through our two flights without too much pain or problems. If only we could skip this week entirely and just be there already! Soon soon, I keep telling myself. Before I know it our vacation will be over (Noooo!) and we'll be back in wintery Winnipeg reminiscing over photos.
