My family and I have been planning something for several years now. While our kids are still young enough to want to spend all their time with us, we are going to take some time throughout 2018 and do some extended traveling.
Us. The kids. And the dogs.
In an RV.
For a few months. Maybe even a year.
We'll see how long we last!
You see, as I've watched my children sprout so quickly over the past few years, I've been trying to figure out how to spend more time with my kids while growing Baja Baby at the same time. That's no easy feat as our company is growing in the United States and Canada, but Kelly and I live in Mexico full time.

Popping into a tradeshow in the US to raise awareness about Baja Baby just hasn't been logistically possible.
Until now.
Juggling motherhood and business has always been challenging, no matter who you are or what responsibilities you have. Ironically, I created my businesses so I could stay at home and be a Mom but most days I struggle to find a balance between the two. I've heard from more than one person that having a career and kids is a challenge - some say it's impossible. My feeling about it is that there's a way to combine the two. Why not make the whole thing a big adventure? :-)
(Ask me how that all worked out in 2019! ;-) )
My family and I have been preparing our lives and RV to lead a more nomadic lifestyle come 2018. We are currently mapping out a casual jaunt around the US and Canada. Along the way, we plan on spreading some Baja Baby love and educating our kids.
We have been pinning friends, family, landmarks, national parks and other points of interest on our US map.
Got any suggestions for us?
We've been getting to know our new home "Sunny" - a 2006 Class C Itasca. We've had a fun Summer redecorating inside and getting her ready for 'The Big Trip'.
If everything goes according to plan, we will be Stateside early Summer. We're currently debating whether or not to paint our entire RV from top to bottom in Baja Baby signage - so we can literally spread the word about Baja Baby as we go. What do you think about that idea? :-)
The reason I'm telling you all this is because I would love to hear from you. I'm from Northern Ireland so I'm not familiar with the US or Canada at all. My husband is from Texas, so we have that state pretty much covered. you have any 'must see' spots that our family has to visit?
Do you know of any family-focused, baby-related events or companies who could benefit from some Baja Baby in their life? If so - I'm all ears.
Send me an email to jen@bajababyshop.com or comment below.
I'd love to connect and hear some ideas.
