My church has been invited to a women's retreat at Lake Tahoe. I'm going to drop off LO at daycare on Friday morning and not come home until Sunday evening. DH will be on daddy duty from Friday afternoon until I'm home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-817274 Thu, 30 May 2013 09:25:24 +0000 Andrea 817274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: yeah, Chinatown!

Just an overnight in a hotel downtown, but so wonderful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-817105 Thu, 30 May 2013 08:38:30 +0000 Rubies 817105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really hope I can before #2 arrives. I'm not sure what I would do, though. What I REALLY want is to sleep in and not have to do any morning duties or bedtime duties! The inbetween stuff is fine...But I just want a break from that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816998 Thu, 30 May 2013 08:02:33 +0000 Andrea 816998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Thanks :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816879 Thu, 30 May 2013 07:06:24 +0000 regberadaisy 816879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: oh do it!

I know how much you have wanted to do a shoot. I might rebook with her, given the discount! I was planning to anyway. She was really great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816856 Thu, 30 May 2013 06:53:19 +0000 regberadaisy 816856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: haha not for a while yet.

I just have to get DH on board! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816840 Thu, 30 May 2013 06:43:04 +0000 Andrea 816840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@belleoftheballe: wow!

We are just staying at a local hotel for the night. All of our husbands work together so they get baby duty for the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816436 Wed, 29 May 2013 19:46:32 +0000 Andrea 816436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: neither do I!

Good enough?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816412 Wed, 29 May 2013 19:37:54 +0000 autumnlove 816412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would but I don't really have anywhere fun to go! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816311 Wed, 29 May 2013 18:29:10 +0000 Andrea 816311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@woodentulip: I haven't booked anything yet but I basically just want one night of uninterrupted sleep! Mrs. Bee blogged about it here: <a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2013/04/23/the-20-hour-momcatio/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2013/04/23/the-20-hour-momcatio/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816310 Wed, 29 May 2013 18:26:45 +0000 woodentulip 816310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want sooooooo badly to do this. What are the details of your/Mrs Bee's momcation? Like...was it more than just a day?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816229 Wed, 29 May 2013 17:31:14 +0000 tinyperson 816229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going with my parents to their beach house (also year round house) for 10 days...almost a momcation for me! The best I can get while breastfeeding... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816203 Wed, 29 May 2013 17:13:32 +0000 heffalump 816203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think for now ill bring dh with me. We both have parents here to babysit when needed so it makes more sense that we get relationship time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816178 Wed, 29 May 2013 17:00:18 +0000 runsyellowlites 816178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I guess you could say I have.... I went to a women's conference out of town with my mom when I was pregnant.... G stayed home with DH. We had alot of fun!</p> <p>I don't think I'd go do something by myself though.... I'd be bored &amp; wanting to tell someone about all I was doing! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816175 Wed, 29 May 2013 16:54:15 +0000 HLK208 816175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did when DS turned 2. I went to LA for a weekend and it was so nice to be alone!</p> <p>I probably won't again until DD turns 2 since I'm still nursing and I don't want to pump where ever I go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816170 Wed, 29 May 2013 16:51:58 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 816170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH offered one for mother's day too, but i'm also still breastfeeding and DS is only 3-months old so i can't. maybe next year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816166 Wed, 29 May 2013 16:50:46 +0000 Dandelion 816166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is going with my parents to their lake house for a week at the and of June. DH is still working, so I'm calling that my vacation. I *really* need a vacation! I will probably do a lot of shopping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816164 Wed, 29 May 2013 16:49:16 +0000 Freckles 816164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH offered to give me one on Mother's Day (weekend) but then he sprained his ankle and it never happened. I've asked for just an afternoon off, which i might take in the coming weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816147 Wed, 29 May 2013 16:42:45 +0000 lomom 816147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not until he's much older and not until he's off breastmilk, but I take momcations in my daydreams ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-ever-take-a-mom-cation#post-816141 Wed, 29 May 2013 16:36:58 +0000 Andrea 816141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Or have you ever taken one?</p> <p>I think I'm going to book one for after DH gets back from his business trip. He'll be gone a week. I'm mostly by myself with the two girls anyway so it shouldn't be a huge deal ... unless someone gets sick! Nooooooo!</p> <p>Anyway, mine will probably be really similar to the one Mrs. Bee took! </p>
