Our First Road Trip

Scott had a week of vacation at the end of October so we decided to take Sophia on her first road trip!  First stop-Corpus Christi to visit Sophia's great grandmother Meme and Uncle Stan.  Sophia was so good in the car, we stopped half way to let her eat, change her diaper and stretch.  She made the 4 hour trip like a champ and I was so proud of her.  We stayed at Scott's Uncle Stan's house and had dinner the first night we got there.  Sophia slept great in her pack and play for 8 straight hours!  When she woke up, it was her 2 month birthday and she found a new toy she loved to watch-a really cool fan that was in our bedroom.

The next morning we were off to see Meme, who turned 91 this year and is such an inspiration to me and will be some day to Sophia.  Meme held Sophia and she was so happy sleeping in her arms.

I thought this position looked a bit uncomfortable, but Sophia was perfectly content sleeping like this for at least 20 minutes!

So sweet:)

Meeting for the first time!

We enjoyed lunch that afternoon and catching up.  There is nothing like good family time!

After spending two nights in Corpus, we headed home for one night to do laundry, repack and regroup (there is nothing like traveling with a baby.  We did not have an inch of free space in the car!) Next stop-our beach house for another two nights.  The weather was fabulous so we enjoyed some relaxing time at the beach.  While we were there, it was Sophia's first Halloween.  There was no trick or treating this year, but we look forward to lots of candy next year!
