Adventures in Camping with Pregnant Ladies and Toddlers!

A few weekends ago we headed out for our once a summer camping trip. We wanted to stay close to home so we went to Moreau Lake State Park, in Saratoga, NY. Not only had we never been to this park before, we had never been camping with a VERY busy 18 month old, or a very uncomfortable pregnant mama...it posed to be a very interesting weekend. The park ended up being only 40 minutes for the house which was very nice. The sites were big, the bathrooms were clean(even had coin-free showers!!!), there was a nice big playground, and a nice beach to enjoy. Other than the fact that pregnant people should not sleep on the ground, it was a really fun trip. We would camp here again, as well as day trip!

After our hike we decided to check out the lake. We were not planning on swimming until after out lunch and Isaac's nap. As we turn the corner and the lake comes into view, Isaac started screaming, "WATER, WATER, WATER!!!" So we walked on the beach, which lead to Isaac dipping his toes, which lead to Isaac full on jumping in the water, which lead to Adam going back to our site to get lunch, swimsuits, chairs towels, sand toys, etc...what a good husband I have!!! The beach was perfect for our family, the water was warm and shallow so Isaac could be very independent.
