Amelia's First Road Trip!

So we went down to Colorado this past weekend because my baby brother Kyle was being ordained to be an Elder (I know for all of you who have known us since Kyle was born...it's weird). Anyway, we weren't too excited about the trip since we were going to be driving and we weren't sure how Amelia would do. Well...she slept most of the way there, only waking up to eat. She did, however, wake up half an hour before we got to my mom's screaming because she was done being in her seat.

The driving there was not bad since she slept most of the way. It was strange trying to figure out when the best time to stop would be, but she did great, waiting for us to stop before she woke up. She is such a great baby!! Then comes the hotel...so she had been constipated for a few days (I'm sure she is going to love this when she is a teenager!) and I had given her juice everyday but nothing was happening...until I laid her on the hotel bed to play with Rob. EVERYWHERE!!!!! It was hilarious! We had to strip the sheets, put her in the sink to be washed up. The whole thing was just funny.

Rob gave her a quick bath in the sink (as I said above) and Kelly, Jason, Rob and I laughed pretty hard since she is a bit too big to be taking baths in the sink. Not only that but it was the first of 4 explosions that day. WOW! We better lay off the juice!

This was the first time Kyle had seen Amelia and I had him feeding her for me. He is such a great uncle! Amelia loves her Uncle Kyle!

Our trip home was pretty uneventful as well. She slept most of the way...then about 20 minutes from home she got mad. After we got home and unloaded the van, Rob and I put her back in her car seat (to which she was completely opposed) and went to his mom's for a visit. His mom lives 5 minutes away and Amelia screamed the entire time! WOW! It was a fun trip overall.
