We're Back!!

We attempted our first road trip this weekend!! In all the years that we traveled between Baton Rouge/Lafayette and Houston (over 40 trips at least) we were able to endure some of the worst traffic ever. Our four and half hour drive was seven hours on the way there and six hours on the way back - that does include an hour stopover, but really...

Luckily, the little man was great! On the way there, we got stuck in some awful traffic when we were driving into Baton Rouge (like 7 miles out) and we were right on the cusp of his feeding time, so we definitely had a close call on that one. Other than a little crankiness, he was a good sport and even got to hang out with his grandfather Papu that evening. He happened to be in the area for a conference. Unbelievably, Vincent slept through the night all three nights while we were there. The trip back home was less eventful, although we stopped at a Cheddar's thinking we'd be able to feed him while we were waiting for our food to come. Instead, we had the "best" service you could imagine - meaning they kept coming to our table while I was trying to breastfeed...needless to say, we'll be doing more car feeding from now on - although it really wasn't all that bad - it was more funny than anything else - I mean, how often do you get a waiter coming by to make sure everything is OK like 5 times??!!

We did get to catch Vincent laughing on video. He's really started smiling a lot more. He's also bringing his hands together and playing tug of war with them and just being a little drool monkey. We also posted a video of him rolling over in drop shots. Granted, the couch has a little incline to it, but it was fun to see him move :)

(please excuse the singing on this video - I mean, maybe my sister and I should go on American Idol...or America's Got Talent - I'm sure we've got a future there :) )
