Going on Bacation

It started out last night that just Isabelle was going on “bacation” but now Bear is too, once he heard her plan this morning. Last night Isabelle packed her bags and outlined to me how she was going to get to grandma’s house, who would be taking her and who would be picking her up.

With her bag all packed she unloads it to show me what she is brining with her. Three sets of clothes, an extra pair of shoes, two toys, her camera (she must take after me there), Bitty Baby, a “sleep bag” for Bitty baby, and after I reminded her, socks and underwear. Oh yes and a pair of jama pants and two shirts. Now she is all ready for going on her bacation with Grandma Susie.

Bear on the other hand packs very light. He only needs one diaper with a liner, his “Guy, guy, and E,” plus a pair of shoes. No need for clothes, he’s just going to wear the jamas he has on. He is going on bacation with Oma.


As I sit down to write this, here is part of the conversation we have about said bacation:

Isabelle: “It’s just time for me to go, Mom.”

Mom: “No, you need to wait until later; you have to go to dance today.”

Isabelle: “No you need to take us now. We are going on a bacation. Can me and Bear just go on bacation. We very do want to go.”

Mom: “You’re going to have to wait a little bit.”

Do you think I should tell her that Grandma Susie is coming to town on Wednesday? Oh yea she is also taking a picture with her. No not of her mom and dad but of her cousin Gabby, Grandpa Bernie and her building the teeter totter from last summer. At least Cooper has elected to stay with me, probably so he can be close to the boob.
