Our first trip

We had our first trip as a family of four. We went to visit Robb and Dave in Lincoln, NE. It went extremely well considering it was Addison's first trip in the car for more than 2 hours. AND I was in the backseat in between both the car seats. So, they didn't sleep very well but we managed. By the time we got there I deserved a "Mommy of the trip" award. We had a great visit- Saturday we ventured the Lincoln Zoo and was quite impressed. Jackson & Robb took a train ride, we fed the hungry & aggressive goats and saw camels. Sunday we went shopping! And the rest of the time we ate great food that Robb & Dave made. Jackson and Addison enjoyed the kitty (the feeling was NOT mutual) and always wanted to know where she was and what she was doing. Jackson was rough at first but got semi-gentler by the time we left- or kitty just got used to it?? This weekend is a worrisome one for me. Papa and Nana took my baby boy camping! This is his first trip anywhere without me so I'm having a bit of a difficult time. And then Nana doesn't call or answer her phone!! I just talked to her FINALLY and they are having such a great time- so Jackson is going to spend a second night and come home tomorrow instead of us going to get him today. They also have Ashton & Parker- which is the reason that Jackson HAD to go. He was so excited when we were packing his backpack and suitcase. My little boy is all grown up! Addison is enjoying the weekend being an only child. She got spoiled by Gram lastnight while Nate & I went to do a practice triathalon. And this morning it was all about Addison. She's not used to being "safe" and not getting knocked over or roughed up while playing on the floor! She is starting to pull up on things- hasn't gotten to her feet but its coming much too quickly. She is so busy.
