Yup…you could say we are a little crazy to go camping with an 8 month old teething little boy! It was fun and yes there was lack of sleep from mother and son.
Was it worth it? Yes, it’s the memories made! Branded into my brain that camping with an 8 month old was a crazy choice but we can say we did it and survived it! With that said, it will probably be awhile till we go camping again.
