Dave took some time off this holiday break to help me with the kids, so we decided to take an overnight trip to Ocean City, Maryland on Sunday. It was a perfect day for it. Temperatures were in the upper 60's! We started the day in Lewes, Delaware. Stopped for some pizza and then to the beach at Fort Henolopen, Delaware. It was so beautiful. It was warm and hardly anybody was there. We took a walk, and the girls got crazy running around and playing in the sand. We then drove to Ocean City, took a walk on the empty boardwalk, had dinner, and the kids really enjoyed swimming at the hotel indoor pool.
Everyone was excited to sleep in the hotel. Amelia in the pull out sofa bed, Dave in one bed, Ava in the pack-n-play, Drew & I in the other bed. Ava and Amelia were telling knock-knock jokes about poop. You know the one, "Knock-Knock", "Who's there?", "Poop-poop". Oh, that was funny...... Then about 7:45pm, Amelia told Dave to turn the TV off for bed. This was the first time in our "hotel career" that a first night away from home went so smoothly. I went to the bathroom about 9:45pm. While I was gone Andrew let out a noise, "Where are you Mom?" and the minute I got back to bed, his eyes were closed, I laid down next to him and he gave me the hugest grin I've ever seen.
We woke up Monday for more swimming and then a leisurely out of the way drive home, and a stop for lunch at my favorite crab house on Kent Island.
