camping

we didn't make Sagga camp due to the potential pox (which hasn't emerged....).  but last week, given the weather reports were favourable, we decided to head to the Forest of Dean to camp as a family for the weekend.  We stayed at a lovely site, with plenty of space for Ben to run about, with great facilities.  Friday night was hard going, Becca woke regularly and YELLED.... pity our poor neighbours!  but the next night she was calm ( if still awake a lot!).  Saturday we headed to Symonds Yat and managed to persuade Ben to go on the little boat over the river, and his highlight was throwing stones in the river.They both had a really lovely time and Paul and I, whilst knackered from the lack of sleep, really enjoyed the time away too.  I think camping with babies is tough but toddlers is great.  It's hard work as you don't get any real break, but once Becca is Ben's age, i can see we will really get into the swing of things..... :-)
