Maddie's First Road Trip

Well, last weekend our cousin Troy got married. This weekend, our cousin Adam got married. Madeline got to do some new things. She got to go on a road trip, she stayed at a hotel, swam in a pool, and got to meet some new family members...

My cousin Adam lives in the St. Louis area, where most of my mom's side of the family lives. They haven't had a chance to meet Madeline due to the long drive, and I found out that my Grandma from Oklahoma was coming, so we knew we had to go.

We left for the wedding on Friday morning, and we knew that it would be a long drive down. Maddie has only been in a car for 2 hours at most, so we weren't sure how she would take it. She did really well. She slept for an hour when we first got into the car, and then took another 2 hour nap later in the afternoon. We made it down in less than 6 hours, with only two stops, and on one tank of gas. Not too shabby. The way back wasn't too bad...she did get a little crabby here and there, but she napped really well. Take a look....
