[quote=Anonymous]Your worries are running what should be a fun event.

I’m an older mom and took this exact type of trip when my child was just about to turn one and only napped (and still only naps) in his bed in the dark. The next youngest was six or seven. The trip was awesome! It was so relaxed and we could pick and choose what to do. Sometimes things didn’t make sense for our family, so we either split up, participated for half the time (like the beach and boating-btw just ask people! They can plan to loop back and drop you guys off) relaxed or did our own thing. No biggie.

Nightime was so freeing. Everyone hung out, relaxed and some people had some drinks and just enjoyed adult time, while our kid slept and the older kids got tucked in with popcorn, treats and a movie.

Having all those adult (experienced) adult and older kid hands around was perfect. Our kid was entertained by all the kids playing and the adults would steal our guy sometimes and just enjoy a little one or demand we take a little time to ourselves to swim.

One of my favorite vacations ever. As long as you are clear about your needs versus suffering in silence you’ll be fine. Let them know the naps that are gonna have to take place, that you would like to hang out as much as you could (but understand sometimes the older kid are gonna wanna do non baby stuff) and what’s the best way to make that happen.

Just use your words. [/quote]
