Our anniversary is coming up this week and we would like to go somewhere on vacation. However, we have a 3 month old who needs to be hooked up to a machine that monitors her breathing (she's fine, she has sleep apnea related to her reflux.) It can't be too expensive, I haven't worked since March because of maternity leave and will not get another paycheck till October so the money is kind of tight. We love camping, but can't hook up her equipment if we are camping. She spends the night at her grandparents all the time, but I would kind of like her to share our anniversary, but it's not needed. Thank you for your help.

We don't need specific places, just ideas. But if you have any great ideas near Seattle we would love to hear to hear them

I think the best thing you can do is celebrate your anny with just you & your husband. If the baby can stay with grandma with no problem then do it. Don't forget that you guys need alone time. And you deserve to be able have tons of sex & stay up late or sleep in late or whatever it is that YOU want to do, not what the baby requires you to do. The best thing you can do for her is keep a happy, healthy relationship between you two.
Now I don't know where you live, but I'm in Fort Lauderdale. My son was born 2/24 & our wedding anny was on 5/10, so my son was 2 & 1/2 months old. Basically, we were in the same boat as you. What we did was drop the baby off at my mom's & we took a little shitty cruise to the Bahamas for only 3 days & 2 nights. It wasn't Carnival Cruises or anything like that but we had a blast just being together on a little mini vacation. Now, from where we live it was only like $120 each. If that's too much or your far away, then go camping. You guys like it & without the baby, you can do it. Also, if you live close to a coast or any beach area or even lake area, even if its only a few minutes away, go rent a hotel room for 2 or 3 days. No reason you can't be on vacation right where you live. No chores, no cleaning up, you guys can drink & not worry about driving. Things like that.
I hope this helps & happy anniversary!!!

Well, if you got the baby you may as well have the other 2 as well huh? Lol! Go out to a nice restaurant with the little ones. Celebrate with the whole family. After all that you still have your special time together when you two are alone. Good Luck and Happy Anniversary.

Contact the Seattle Tourist Bureau for ideas. Perhaps you could rent a small cabin equipped with electricity and still enjoy the great outdoors.

If it were me I'd drive to a nearby quaint tourist town and stay in an inexpensive motel.
I don't know where you live so I can't help you more than that.
