Road Trip!

Last weekend Amelia took her first road trip! Our road trip was with Nana and Papa and we went to Kansas to visit Great-Grandma Lillian, Uncle Bob, Aunt LuAnn and their kids, Cameron, his wife Kelly, Corey and Aaron!

Our little trooper! Amelia left us all speechless - we drove around 8 hours on Friday (also Amelia's 9 month birthday) and did not make a fuss until the last 15 minutes of the trip! On the way home, which was all in one day (around 11 hours) she didn't fuss at all! We could not have asked for a better trip with her.

Papa driving. We seemed to have a theme on the way down...the theme was spills. It started before we even left Fort Dodge when our coffee spilled all over. The theme passed back and forth between us all. I think Papa and I were affected the most - at least 2 spills each. Nana and Daddy got stuck with 1 spill. Note to Papa: Don't poke a hole in the bottom of your styrofoam cup...it will continue to leak all over you!

Daddy and Amelia! While on the way down, a discover was made.....Amelia got another tooth on the bottom! Right next to the other!

What can I say other than, Bitter Beer Face.....to the extreme!

Amelia happily chowing down on her pacifier. She isn't really a child who sucks on a pacifier or relies on it for comfort, but she definitely will play with it and chew on it.
