Family picture!!The plan was to leave to head up to my parents house on Sat. morning, however the snow storm made us change our plans!! So at the last min. on Friday, Anthony called off work and we frantically packed all of our crap up (which now takes FOREVER since we pack for Levi too). We got on the road around 2 with the hopes that Levi would sleep on the way up. His normal naptime is about 2-4:30, so we thought we were golden! We couldn't have been more wrong. The child had different plans in mind. Needless to say, it was a LONG trip. We had the backseat all loaded up with bags and such, when 30 min. into the trip, Levi refused to stop screaming. So we pulled off the interstate, which in Kentucky the roads were untouched so we were only able to travel about 45 miles per hr anyway. We pulled off the side of the road and switched all the bags and boxes from the backseat to the front. Meanwhile, my feet sank in the slush and snow on the road and my pants got covered by a passing by semi who was going way too fast. So for the rest of the trip my feet were freezing, I was dealing with a screaming baby and not to mention our german Shepherd pooch Sadie was breathing down my neck from the back of the Envoy. What fun!! Thank the Lord we got through Cincy with no traffic. Then we got about 20 min. from my parents and Levi was hungry, so we pull off at a McDonalds and feed him in the car. The snow continued to pile up. Finally, 3 and a half hours later we made it safely to my parents!
Thus, our trip just began!!!
The trip was well worth it though because we got to see my brother's family from Michigan! That also meant I got to meet my niece Claire for the first time!! She is so sweet and little:) I love her! The house was packed and crazy like always, but this time more so with the 2 newest additions of Claire and Levi. You can feel the love of family though and I wouldnt trade it for the world. If mom and dad could add on to their house, that may not be a bad idea!!! :)
We had a great time at my parents, and were able to celebrate my birthday while we were there too. I turned 25 this year...a quarter of a century!! WOW! We also we able to celebrate Easter with my parents and with my mom's extended family. Levi decided to sleep for the first half of it, so we were late getting there, but once there, it was nice to see everyone! Levi got an Easter bucket filled with goodies and even found 5 eggs (okay, I found them for him)!!
While we had anticipated staying till Wed, Levi once again caused us a change of plans! We headed home on Tuesday so he could get some better sleep. He slept the whole way home (a definite answer to prayer) and once home, he slept a lot better in his own crib too! It's amazing how having a baby changes your life....while trying at times, I would not want it any other way. He has changed my life and I thank God for him!
