Babies First Vacation

Well, to start off... the night before our little vacation I decided to go look for a bathing suit (BAD IDEA!) I had a hard time through the whole pregnancy with my body, some girls love the way they feel pregnant and feel beautiful... I did not. All I saw was LLAARRGGEE. So about a week after I delivered the girls I was back down to where I was before I got pregnant... I weighed the same but sure don't look anything like I did before. So thats where my battle began.. and I refuse to ever go bathing suit shopping again. I don't know if it's because my job consists of me in bfront of a lot of mirrors in tight clothing makes this worse, or if other women feel the same way during and after pregnancy. But I just hope I can feel beautiful again someday.

So I was really wanting to go on a vacation because I haven't been on one in a while, and I have been through quite a lot these past three months and just wanted to just get away and relax. I had my babies 11 weeks before the biggest event of the year in my life. A dance recital. Obviously I wasn't planning on this time frame, but that's just how it happend. So with a lot of help, we got through it. I wanted to make sure I gave my best to my students because they mean the world to me, but it was just so hard when I was completely exhausted and drained. But the recital went off beautifully and it was an awesome night of worship, and I am so proud of everyone!
Recital Rehearsal

So I think a vacation was in order! :)
BUT,  I have two babies who don't cry, but they SCREAMMMMM their brains out. So I was actually pretty much stressing out over the trip because I did not know how it was going to go with them.



BRANSON HERE WE COME



On the way there, we split them up into two different cars so if there was cry attacks it wouldn't be so overwhelming. But I was actually so impressed with them. They did so great in the car rides, and actually throughout the whole trip. And we made it there in one happy piece! :)
When we got there we shopped all day at the outlet mall. It was VERY hot and crowded. I think there was more babies then grown ups there. So we were all exhausted and came back to our cabin and took a nap. The girls were pooped. 
Day 2- Getting ready for the lake.

Babies slept most of the time on the boat. I think they liked the vibrations :)

Back to our cabin, since they were out in the sun all day, it seemed so dark in our room the girls eyes were SO big! :)        

 So All in All we had a great trip with all our family. The girls did great, and we all got to rest and relax. Although, I think Emmalyn took it too literally that a vacation was for rest. She slept the WHOLE time!  Oh well... :)

Back home, back to reality. Messy house, mommy and daddy are burnt to a crisp, and I slept in the huge pile of laundry on my bed.

The End.
