at what age was your dc when you went on his/her 1st vacation...

and where did you go?

my dh and i are planning a trip for our 2nd anniv. in september, since i was on bedrest for our 1st anniv.

i'm apprehensive about going to a different country (ds will be just shy of one yr. old)

i'm also apprehensive about taking him on a long road trip (we live in chicago) and we were considering a cape cod vacation.

thanks for all your help and recommendations!

They'll be just shy of 6 months - we're going to Arizona and I'm totally freaking out about it! How about a short flight somewhere? The good thing about a road trip though is you can load as much as you want into your own car and not have to rent one. Good luck!

My little guy was 7 weeks old when we took a 5 day road trip to Newport, RI. It was great! He had no idea what was going on. Chat Icon

Its time for another vacation! I have no issue taking Ella out of the country, but I need to get her a passport. Its at the top of my "to do " list.

4 months we went to denver. Travel while they are little - it's easier than when they get older!!

both my kids were 3 months old. We go every August to a family resort in CT, so its only 3 hours drive away. We stay for a week. I have taken my DS on a place at 7 months and 10 months and he was also very good.

First big vacation: when DD was 11 months we drove down to North Carolina.

Before that, when she was 7 months we went to the Great Wolf Lodge in the Poconos--only 90 minutes away and we only stayed 1 night.
