First Road Trip

Brooklyn went on her first road trip to see Uncle Adam in Tyler TX. It was a 4hr drive! I was a little nervous but knew we could stop if we had too :) Our Aunt Marliyn lives about half way so we decided to stopped there to visit and eat lunch. B slept the whole two hours!! We enjoyed a quick visit and the headed out for the rest of the trip. She slept the next 2 hours and about with 10 minutes left of the trip she woke up and screamed haha! I would say she did GREAT!!!

We had a wonderful time seeing Adam! His new place was nice and he was able to show us around Tyler :) We ate at the Egg and I, which is one of my favorite places, and enjoyed visiting with the congregation there too. Adam cooked us made us the best meal too....honey glazed teriyaki chicken, grilled pineapple, rice and a balsamic salad...YUM YUM. She cuddled with her uncle and he enjoyed giving her a bottle....one time she had a little explosion in her diaper while he was holding her (it took him by surprise HA!) and he just looked at us like, "WOW all that just came out of such a little thing!" YEP....hahaha! It was so funny! Adam mentioned how much stronger she was and didn't seem as fragile from the last time he saw her when she was just a week old! Our little girl is just growing and growing.

Brooklyn and Uncle Adam
She sure loves him :)

We found out it was kinda slow on the farm so we left Adam's on Sunday afternoon and headed about an hours drive to Kemp TX to see one of my best friends and her family! She did great in the car again and we enjoyed a wonderful couple days with them! We left Tuesday to make the 4 hour drive home, she slept for 3 hours, woke up and ate, and slept the rest of the way home. Such a little traveler (makes daddy so proud..hehe). We were ready to get home and back into the swing of things but this was a wonderful first trip for B and mommy too ;)
