1st Vacation with your LO
How old was your DC & where did you go when you went on your first family vacation?
DH and I love to travel & we were thinking of doing something the upcoming year when DS is a little older (He is 10 weeks now), but still was not sure if we are jumping the gun and if we should wait till he is at least a year or so.

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
Go for it! I love taking DD away with us.
We went to NY for a week when she was 4 months for the holidays (stayed with my mom), wasn't really a "vacation" where we stayed at a resort, etc but 1st time flying with her.
We went to Disney for a long weekend when she was 6 months old... then again when she was 8 months.
To Boston when she was 9 months (her 2nd time flying) for a long weekend, stayed with my sister.
Then back to NY when she was 11 months old (3rd time flying)... and we're going back again next week for the holidays! She'll be 16 months.
Our first real vacation will probably be sometime in 2011... probably a cruise. We're also doing Key West and Disney both in April, meeting friends.

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
First road trip was to DC when Mason was 5 months old. He slept a lot so it was fine
First trip away was to Aruba in the winter time. DS was 8.5 months old. Lots of fun, but he just started crawling so that was hard.

We were thinking of Aruba again, we went there 2-years ago and saw so many couples with young children.

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
DD has been all over
Drove to Hilton Head Island when she was 6 weeks
Flew to California to visit DH's family when she was 6 months
Flew to Florida to New York Mets Spring Training when she was 7 months
Flew to Italy (duh) when she was 10 months (spent 3 weeks there)
Flew to Disney World when she was 14 months.
Travelling with her at each age had its pluses and minuses, although I do think the last two trips were harder than the ones when she was younger.

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
We went to the Berkshires when DS was 7.5 months old. We went with several other people and rented a house there. It was a good place to go with an infant.

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
1st road trip to Pitt was 2.5 mos 1st plane ride to Pitt was 6 mos 1st Carribbean vacation (to the DR) was 7 mos - we found it to be good in that he could sit in a high chair and be entertained forever by eating his puffs one by one. he also would sometimes sleep in the stroller after dinner. the downside was the hotel sleeping arrangements. we didnt have a balcony or anything and he went to bed early which meant we had no choice but to go to bed early too. he also hated the hotel crib so getting him to nap twice a day let alone once a day was torture. and again, then one of us was stuck in the dark quiet room bc we had no balcony.
DD will be going on her 1st plane trip/Carribbean vacation (Turcks & Caicos) at 9 mos. This time we got a patio so we could sit outside while they sleep

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
We went for a weekend in Mystic CT, when DS was 6 months. He loved the aquarium! It was perfect, he napped on the way there and on the way back.

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
We went to Mohonk Mountain House w/ DS for 4 days when he was 11 months. It was a quick drive (2.5 hours from Suffolk), and very family friendly! We had a great time.

Re: 1st Vacation with your LO
first was Miami in May (so about 6 months)
then Virginia in August (about 9 months)
then Spain/Italy the day after his first birthday.
this year we'll be staying within the continental US most likely, but we will be taking our man to see his country!
cannot wait!
