roadtrip tomorrow ::little update:: :)

My niece's third birthday was this week, party on Saturday. It's a 2 and a half hour drive, but Nate and I are going. Rodgers isn't. I don't mind the drive itself, but if Nate isn't sleeping or snacking, he only lasts about 20 minutes in the car. Since we're leaving right after breakfast, I have no hopes that he will sleep on the way there, at least not the first half of the trip.

The van I'm driving (borrowing from my parents) has a VCR with a flip down screen. So I got some Elmo tapes from the library and turned his seat around forward facing. And we're going to stop for donuts on our way out of town (because, seriously, Mama needs a donut tomorrow). And I have Cheetos in case of meltdown.

Here's hoping we make it there without too much screaming!

  • The Elmo videos were gold. He only slept the last 20 minutes there and the last 40 minutes on the way home (even though we were driving home after bedtime). We had some fussies, but no high pitched screaming meltdowns. I didn't even have to use the Cheetos. :) We had a blast, but we're still both worn out. He went to bed early today, and I think I will too.

    I'm glad it all worked out and you were able to enjoy the party. Hopefully you got yourself a donut too.
