Adventure Babies: Team DiVa’s first road trip!
Friday - 13 April 2012
Yes, it’s Friday the 13th… or what’s left of it. I hope that everyone fared well and avoided whatever evils confronted them. (Or, if you were the evil, that your will was done.)
SaraRules!, Team DiVa and I spent the better part of the day on the road. We’re in Yuma, Arizona. We’re here because SaraRules!’ grandfather passed away last week:
He had been ill and we were hoping to make it here before that happened - so that he could meet the girls - but he went very quickly. So, we’re here visiting her grandmother for a few days.
I have to say that for being barely over 7 months old, the girls were FANTASTIC on the trip.
So far this trip, milestones include (but aren’t limited to):
- The girls visiting three new states
- Their first time in a casino
- Their first visit to Las Vegas
- Their first time meeting their Great-Grammy Dee.
They got a little irritable for the last few hours, alternating between joy and whining (not quite full-on crying); we attribute a good portion of that to altering their sleep schedules and trying to nap in their car seats. But, all-in-all, they’re good travelers. (Of course, we’ll see how they fare on the return trip… just to make sure.)
It’s been a long day and the girls are (finally) asleep. And I’m looking forward to some not-still-in-the-car rest this evening.
Namaste.
