We headed down to Annapolis and Baltimore for Dada’s and R’s birthday celebration week! We had a pretty easy drive down and then headed into town, walked around, went for a boat tour and then out to dinner. It was HOT but fun.
Even though we had a great time in town, I think the highlight of the day (and really, the whole trip) for the boys was the hotel. They loved the scrabble table, the free milk & cookies every night, having their own bedroom with huge beds to sleep in, and the bathroom, which unlike ours at home, has a shower curtain so they can splash to their hearts’ desire. As soon as R saw there were two beds in his room there was absolutely no shot at getting R to sleep in his crib. We tried to put him in there and just like a cartoon character, he kicked his legs open so they landed on either side of the crib rail and we could not get him into the crib. He kept crying “R sleep in bed!” So we built a pillow fortress around him and let him sleep in the bed. He did really great! Of course, it took them like an hour and half to fall asleep each night because they kept talking to each other and checking to see if the other was asleep yet… but we survived!!
