Road Trip #1

This past weekend Davis had his first "road trip" - up to my parents' house, an hour and a half away.  That doesn't seem very far, but just a few short weeks ago it might as well have been ten hours.  We were anxious to see how Davis would do in the car for that long . . . and he did great!  He talked to himself for quite awhile and then fell asleep for another big chunk of the trip.  By the time he woke up and started to fuss a bit, we were almost there.  We even made it in time for church at 8:45 a.m.  Yay, us!  Davis LOVED looking around at the sanctuary and smiling at all the people.  This is the same church that I attended ever since before I was born, so there were a lot of people who were excited to meet our sweet boy.  Later in the day, we went to a family reunion for my dad's side of the family and he got to meet my aunt, uncle, and cousins.  Add in lots of cuddle time with Grammy, Grandad (Granddad?  I'm not sure how to spell it), and Aunt Shalimar, and you have a happy, spoiled baby. In the rush to get out the door at 7:15 a.m., we forgot our camera, but we do have some other recent pictures to share.
