Home again

Well we survived our trek to Nebraska and Will was probably the best traveler out of all of us! We started back to Houston on Saturday morning and stopped in Kansas City to see Krissy, Tony, and Brody before we kept going. We stopped that night in Oklahoma City and got a hotel room and then came the rest of the way to Houston the next day.

It was our 5 year anniversary and was a romantic one -- complete with a night in the Days Inn and Taco Bell for dinner. :) Todd tried to say that it was a re-creation of our wedding night since we had Amigos and beer after our reception, but I'm not buying it... Poor Todd -- first he spent his first Father's Day driving, then our anniversary driving too! Ah, the things we do for the ones we love! :)

Here's Will hanging out with his friend Brody in Kansas City --








It was great to see Krissy and Tony too -- who would have thought when Krissy and I were paired up to be roommates as freshmen in college that we would be standing here showing off our babies!!










It was funny to us how different Will was even from one week to the next in the car. The first week he slept pretty much the whole trip and other than the hour or two that I read People magazine to him to keep him quiet, he really didn't interact with me much. :) On the way home he was awake a lot more, although still perfectly content most of the time. He just listened to the music and stayed occupied checking out the toys I brought along. It was neat to see him actually react to the toys and track them with his eyes. We are finding that his favorite stuff usually makes noise -- that will be fun later I'm sure!

He must of thought it was pretty funny when I tried to sing to him, because this was the reaction I got...

Since the little traveler made it to and from Nebraska I guess we'll continue to travel and not become home bodies...next stop -- Shreveport for the 4th of July! :)
