So this week was little busy for part of the Sims Family. At the beginning of the week, London and I went to Vegas to help our my brother and sister-in-law, while Dave was having surgery on his synis. Six months old and she's already crossed two state lines! As this was London's first road trip I wasn't quite sure what to expect. But, I figured it would be a good trial run for when we go to California in October. I certainly learned a few things:
1. Changing diapers in the car is not easy (especially if they are really poopie and don't exactly stay in the dipaer)
2. Bring more outfits than you need (in case of afore mentioned poopie diapers)
3. Sometimes, you just need a break from the carseat. You might have to stop more than you intend.
4. Nursing in the car may not be all that comforable or convienant.
All in all, London didn't do too bad. She was doing fine until St. George and then she was ready for a break. I'll be more prepared for going to California.
It was fun to see Dave, Haylie, Emma, Leif, and Noah. We had lots of fun watercoloring, playing with playdough, swimming in the kiddie pool, and playing hide and seek.(I certainly know how to live it up in Vegas!) Emma, Leif, and Noah have the beginnings of first class hiders. They just have to learn not to giggle while you're looking for them. London was constantly entertained by her older cousins.
But, it was nice to come home. There's nothing like sleeping in your own bed. Drew and Frankie missed us. He was really sweet and had the house picked up and the living room vaccummed. It was nice to come home and not finding things in choas. I guess the old adage is true "Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home"
