Just wondering....since I'm not a mother, I'm not quite understanding why DH's idea of a vacation is to ALWAYS visit his DD, DSIL and DGD....is this a practice when you have a new grandchild? I don't understand why he never thinks of us going on our own somewhere.

Di, if I could, I would rent the room next door to my new granddaughter!! It is an awesome feeling. Nevertheless, I will admit I went to Vegas in August with my younger daughter and had a ball...just the 2 of us. She needed some Mommy time too. Right now, I am sure your hubby wants to catch each new moment as it develops. I hope you can enjoy it as well. However, why not suggest a vacation just the two of you or with friends. We are now in the stages of planning a December vacation to Florida. We really need some alone time. We both work so hard, we need to reconnect and get away from it all.

Another thing you can try is stretching the vacation so that you have some together time before or after the trip to visit the new GD. My husband and I often do that with his business trips, taking an extra day or two to sightsee.

I don't have grandchildren yet, but I'm quite sure when I do, I'll want to visit them as much as possible. But some time with the DH in a new setting is also to be treasured.
