HOW TO CAMP, Team Wagner-style:

You load your equipment into a camp cart and push it, slowly, up a steep hill. (Rather, you load your equipment into a cart and watch admiringly as your young, fit husband sweats and pushes it up the hill and you walk behind him, even more slowly, with your big pregnant belly.) When you get to the top, you set up your tent and then walk just a little further uphill to a creek and small waterfall, whose sound will later lull you to sleep.

At sunset, you light a campfire and cook up some beans & hot dogs. Later, you make s'mores with high quality Lindt chocolate bars that your awesome camp-mates brought because they are Australian and do not believe in Hershey's. Delish. Since it's summer at Skyline, you consider going down the hill to see the Shady Shakespeare play that is performed in the clearing, but you find yourselves too caught up in lounging and watching the toddlers happily roll about in the dust to bother.

If you've done camping correctly, you should at some point find your little one exhausted. Now it is time for a tent nap, one of the best kinds of naps. You may want to join in.
Sweet dreams!

That looks like so much fun! And you know you're camping right if you are camping somewhere where you have the option to catch a Shakespeare show if it tickles your fancy. This camping with babies thing is adorable. Good idea!
P.S. Luke, you look so graceful when you sleep.
Maybe your weather isn't as hot as ours because right now, to me, camping sounds like an awful idea! But, typically, I think it's a fantastic idea and I like your take on it :) I think you are one trooper of a lady to go camping with a big pregnant belly! And, love that last shot :)
Mmm, Lori, you're right. Mediterranean climate here: highs in the 70s, lows in the 50s. Paradise.
