Dear Daddy: Day 1

Dear Camryn,
Daddy is traveling to India today for business, so we're going to write him letters on your blog so he can feel like he was with us. This will be the longest amount of time that he's been away from you, and it's breaking his heart. He has texted me saying "tell Camryn how much I miss her" and "give Camryn lots of loving for me" about a million times! :-)

Dear Daddy,
Day one without you was pretty rough. After you left we were pretty sad, I (mommy) ugly cried for about 15 minutes before I pulled myself together. It was a bad day for Cam too. She's been running a low grade fever all day and refused ALL naps. We took a trip to Target to attempt to drown our sorrows in Starbucks and unnecessary purchases, but we didn't find anything fun to buy, and coffee wasn't enough to mend our broken hearts. <---- Exaggerate?! Never!!
Camryn had mango and blueberries for dinner and rubbed her head with sticky hands, so bath time shortly followed. Auntie came over and brought us some YUMMY dinner (you missed out), and then we gorged ourselves on ice cream. We stayed up way past our bedtimes studying for Aunties big test this week, so it's finally nighty night time!
We miss you like crazy, and we're counting down the seconds until you come back home to us!
We love you,
Mommy & Camryn :-)

Jetsetter

Dear Camryn,
You're taking your last nap in Mexico right now and when you wake we'll be leaving to the airport. This last week in Cabo has been so much fun! We brought Auntie with us on vacation so Daddy and I could spend some alone time together and do things that you can't do yet, like drink piƱa coladas. I think you and Auntie tricked us into bringing her so you two could party; the two of you are like Frick and Frack. Best friends for sure! :-)
We've had such a rough week. We relaxed by the pool, sunk our toes in the sandy beach, ate some incredible food, Daddy & I parasailed, jet skied in the Sea of Cortez and saw the Arcos de Los Cabos. Daddy deep sea fished on a 60' yacht, we shopped at the marina, Mommy ate every mexican dessert that exists, and you stole the hearts of all the staff at our resort. <3
We haven't even left yet, but Daddy and I are already planning our next escape from the real world. We love getting to travel with you! In the last year you've visited Washington, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Napa Valley, South Padre Island & Los Cabos. We're also heading back to Washington in August, and we are planning a trip to visit Aunt Molly and Uncle Brenden in Colorado. I think our next big trip will be somewhere tropical again...maybe Costa Rica, or the Virgin Islands?!
