We love to go camping.
And this will be our first year with Murphy. :D

Any tips??
Certain things to bring.

80% of the time we camp at the dunes here on the Oregon coast.
Other then that it's just usual camping by a river or at the ocean.

I was thinking of getting one of those cot beds. I can't remember what they are called, I think tysons mom has one and some other people.
To have outside with us when we are in our chairs etc
That way he's not on the ground.

He will most likely sleep with us. That's okay though, he will keep me warm!!

Can't wait for camping season!!!

Its called a "Coolaroo" - I would always bring things like benadryl, pepcid ( I think of bugs when camping ) first aid stuff, neosporin, etc. Make sure he has some sort of repellent on for ticks, mosquito's, etc. Fan (depending on weather - must stay cool - or blankets if opposite for warmth) Baby wipes, and something familiar to him. A toy, blankie, anything to make him comfy out of his normal surroundings :)

Haha yes! That's what it is!!

I'm actually going to get him a travel bag this weekend and fill it with all of those goodies for him.
Kind of excited haha
So repellent?? Any kind or??

I'll have the torches with the repellent all around the camp site too.

That's one thing I need to get once the fans and acs going back into the stores. Might just order it online.
I want a fan that clips onto a desk( or to anywhere)

For the repellent, I was referring to like Frontline, K9 Advantix, etc. You prob. already have him on one, just make sure its up to date. We use a monthly one :)

[MENTION=14691]Kimberlie[/MENTION] If you need a spray for bug/mosquito repellent, Avon Skin so Soft bath oil in a spray bottle mixed with water is a good repellent.Use it on my dogs,and horses.

I'm actually excited to get a life jacket for him.
We got him in August so it started to cool down
So I couldn't really take him to any water.

He loves the bathtub though. Going to get him a little kiddy pool as well for my moms house and my mother in laws house.

Going to go buy one in May because I know he is going to get bigger hahah
