The Beach

It is a tradition in Ryan's family to go to the Outer Banks of North Carolina every other year for two weeks. I think this has to be my favorite family tradition.
We just got back a couple of days ago and I miss it so much. I love being with Ryan 24/7 and it was very nice to have 30+ pairs of hands to help with Jake.
Jake just looks at me everyday and I think he thinks "your it?" Where are my grandma's and aunts and cousins?
Thanks to all that made this trip possible and to everyone who helped with Jake.
As you will see in the pictures he did a ton of sleeping. We love our little guy. It is so fun to see him discover and experience new things for the first time.

Christmas Meadows

My Grandparents built an awesome cabin in a place called Christmas Meadows. I have been going there my whole life. I have such great memories of the cabin. It is truly the most relaxing vacation on earth. No phone, no TV and no cell reception. I love it.
We went up for the 4th of July and had a blast with the Munns family. We went hiking, canoeing, fishing and saw a big moose right in front of the cabin. We had a great time.

Sleep Training

Jake has officially been crying for 48 minutes and my doctor said to let him go 90. Sleep training is officially the hardest part about being a mom. I am about to pull my hair out I feel so bad. Anybody have some good tips to get through it? I am desperate.
