Next week we will be heading off on our first “family of 4″ vacation.  We are going to be spending a nice 10 days in the desert, getting some nice sun and heat.  Keeping the family cool and out of the sun will be on the top of the list of fun things to do.

My favorite part of the trip, is always the no stress trip to the airport which always run smoothly.  (Never happened)  How are you supposed to carry, two kids, a stroller, two car seats, three suitcases, diaper bag and backpack?  I will let you know on Wednesday.

Empty Kids Room... a scary one... not ours.

I remember, with the first kid, everything baby was all new and exciting and stuff.  We were always talking to the baby bump, giving him lots of music and stuff to listen to, and I think the baby really loved the Tony Robbins stuff, Kidding.  You know what I mean.  Everything was all fresh and new, and you wanted to do everything right.  I mean, even the food I cooked for my wife was way healthier.

I dont know, I guess I feel like this kid might be getting the shaft.  Theres no music everynight, no special book readings to the bump.  All that is going to stop, I mean start, tonight.  I need the give this kid some specail time.  Marley really seems to love music and books, and I wonder if it had anything to do with the fact that we did all that cool stuff when she was still in the belly.

But now is the time act.  The baby is coming two months.  But we think it could be sooner, and we have done nothing to get ready.  With the first one… by know, we already had all the baby stuff, nursery completed, names picked out, stroller and car seats handled.  This time… nothing.

Is it the same for everyone else?
