Now in the grand scheme of things, 5 1/2 hours in the car isn't that long for most people...but when you have a small child in the car, who needs to eat every few hours, 5 1/2 hours can seem like FOREVER! But we made it through in shinning colors!
Valentines weekend Jason and I ventured up North to visit our friends Anne and Pete Young. Jason took Friday off of work and we left Thursday evening and drove up to his dad's in Portage. That is only a 2 hour drive (not bad at all, Jillian slept the entire way). We got up the next morning with the sun shinning and decided to take Jillian out for a walk around their area. The fresh air was so good for her...it put her right to sleep!
After a walk we packed up and continued on our adventure North! Rhinelander is another 3 1/2 hours in the car North. We got to Anne and Pete's house late afternoon with most of our sanity in tact! I had to jump in the back seat to help entertain Jillian for the last hour of our drive (not an easy task!). After saying hello, getting a tour of the new house, unpacking the car and a quick feeding for Jillian we were off to an authentic North Woods fish fry (so good!). We had a great time up North with Triple A and Uncle Pete. Just take a look!
Uncle Pete entertaining Jillian...the airplane is landing!
Jillian is such a happy baby, sitting and playing at Anne and Pete's.
Anne and Pete's neighbor, Christy and Chloe (10 months) came over for a play date when the boys went on their outdoor adventure!
We got up Sunday morning and had another great breakfast, packed up and headed home. Jillian was such a good girl on the way home. She let us drive for 2 1/2 hours and we stopped for lunch. Jillian ate and pooped, all in one stop! She was good to go and slept the rest of the way home! We had a great time up North with Anne and Pete, the drive was good, so all-in-all it was a good Valentines weekend!
