So off to NH we went as a family vacation that was going to include one of my best friends weddings, family visits, lots of lobster, and even more LOVE!
Max got to visit a few airports along the way, which let me tell you, was not the greatest idea on my part. Our first flight from Seattle to Boston had a layover in Chicago....on the red-eye. Which meant Max had 2 hours of sleep at home, followed by 2 hours of sleep on the plane, followed by COMPLETE METLDOWNS the rest of the many hours until we arrived in Portsmouth NH. I think I have sworn off traveling when babies are this young. I'm sure he was thinking "WTF are we doing awake at this hour? What are all these other freaks doing around me? This big tin can is NOISY and not condusive to my sleep Mumma! And last but not least GET ME THE F*** OUT OF HERE".
We finally arrived at my Moms house in NH, "DeeDee" as Max refers to her. He was thrilled to be somewhere he could crawl around, play with new toys, and get lots of snuggles. DeeDee was thrilled too!

The following day we headed up to Bar Harbor, ME where my gf's wedding and rehearsal was. Another travel day for Max....7 hours of travel that is! A few meltdowns along the way but overall he did fine. Especially with the insane amount of entertaining DeeDee was doing! :)

Our next adventure after leaving Maine, was to head to Grantham NH to visit Maxs "Bumpa"! We had a blast spending the day and even got a visit in from Maxs Great Grammy Eva! We spent the afternoon at a great little private beach. Although Max slept the entire time! As shown below! Poor baby was just too tired from all of our adventures!

Our trip was absolutely wonderful being able to visit with my family and friends that I miss so much! Having Max has made it even harder being far away from them! We definitely miss all the love and snuggles being 3,000 miles away! But at the same time, it makes seeing everyone that much more special!

Our trip came to the end way too fast! And we all definitely felt like we needed a vacation...from our vacation! It took Max about 3 days at home to get readjusted, but then he decided to start sleeping through the night out of no where! 2 out of 3 nights he slept for 11-12 hours straight! Maybe we need to take vacations more often?! :)
A HUGE thank you to all of my friends and family that welcomed us and took care of us while we were there! An even BIGGER thank you to my Mumma "DeeDee" for taking such good care of Max while Dustin and I attended the rehearsal and wedding of Kristen and James. We couldnt have made this trip happen without the help and support of our east coast family! We miss you so much already everyone! Looking forward to our next NH vacation already! xxoo
