This summer, I wanted to make an effort to try to do new and different things every week/weekend. At 15-18 months old, they are at a prime age to really get something out of new experiences.
This summer, Sam and Anna went to the zoo for the first time.
We went swimming in a lake for the first time too.
Sam and Anna went on their first boat ride.
They saw their first planes and trains up close.
They ate their first ice cream and popsicles.
We went to the fair for the first time.
...among other things.
Next weekend we will be going camping for the first time. Yup, against probably my better judgement, we are taking our twin toddlers camping. We have a pop up tent that should fit two pack n plays. It has been sitting unused for two years, because I'm at least smart enough not to take twin babies camping. I'm itching to put it to use again. I'm sure sleep will be far less than ideal, but we'll get through.

Can't wait to hear about the camping! I've thought about it but I think we'll aim for next year when the boys might actually listen to me before running away.
Oh my gosh!!! I have briefly imagined what it would be like to take Noah camping (I am not a camper by any stretch of the imagination, but have been twice in my life). I immediately wrote it off as probably the worst thing we could do. You are so brave!!! Good luck!!!:)
You brave, brave girl. :)
Nah, I'm sure they will do fine. You're a pro.
Have a great weekend!
We're going camping over Labor Day!!
But - we got a cabin =). I'm still nervous about dirt and mud and lack of baths and the campfire...but we'll get through too =)
Ya know, I thought all the 1sts ended after the 1st birthday..but they continue and they get better! 1st real ice cream cone, 1st trip to the waterpark, etc. Im glad you guys are having a fun summer! And good luck next weekend.
Your summer of firsts sounds like it was tons of fun for you and the twins!
Best of luck with your upcoming camping trip!
