This past weekend we went to Sunday River in Western Maine with a bunch of our friends. We took this trip last spring as well. We stay at a great cross country ski lodge called the Sunday River Inn which has a very family feel. It is really low key and makes a great place to take kids.
Saturday morning we set out at 5:30 so we could get in a good day of cross country skiing. I demoed a pair of skate skis, with part of our group while Liam and Mike went sled riding with some of the others. Liam is getting to such a fun age in which he loves to hang out with the big kids. It is so fun to see him interact with Sammy and Eliza. He is also good about being very gentle with his little friend Anouk.
We got in some really fantastic skis and as always Liam was a total champ. He adores being outside, which is such a plus for us.
While he was great during the day, he did have a horrible night on Sunday night. He was totally against sleeping and spent a lot of time screaming and crying. I don't think Mike and I got much sleep at all that night nor did our friends who were sharing a chalet with us. Last night I mentioned bed around six and Liam went straight to our stairs to go to his room. He started climbing up the stairs intent on an early bedtime. After a weekend full of good friends, great skiing and one night of little sleep we were all ready for some extra rest.
