Camping with Caid!

This weekend, we decided at the last minute to join my mom/John at Lake Wilson.  We'd thought about heading down there Friday evening, but with cooler nighttime temps and a good chance of rain Friday evening and all day Saturday at Wilson, we decided that would not be ideal weather for Caid!

However, Saturday came, and the weather was beautiful in Stockton.  After a morning of birding, Jon got home and immediately said, "call your mom and ask what the weather is doing!"  Turns out, after a raining morning at the lake, it had turned into a gorgeous day there as well.  So Jon and I packed up our gear and headed out!

Mom and I had decided that 4 adults, a 2 month old and 4 dogs were just too many beings for a camper, so Jon and I, without hesitation, decided to tent! It was going to be awesome!








So, remember I said we were just SURE it was going to be awesome to tent with a 2 month old??? well.... that was before I remembered how WINDY it usually is in Kansas, and before I realized how COOL it was going to be at night!  BUT, despite the wind trying its best to keep Caid awake, our family prevailed!  We lulled Kincaid to sleep in his car seat after he decided 10pm was a good time to be wide awake :) and, not only did he happily fall asleep around 11, he also slept until 6:45am!


Kincaid - well rested and ready to go at 6:45am!
