Last year I got a new alarm clock, you know, the kind that if you don't wake up when it makes a sound, then it reaches out and slaps you in the face...literally. Yep, B is pretty effective an getting one out of bed. Every once and a while you get a bye and he "snoozes" a little more. Well, last Friday was no exception. We decided that we would just start our final day of travel relaxed and on B's schedule. We had a nice breakfast at the hotel, loaded the car back up, changed one more diaper, and were on our way across the great state of Indiana. I let my mom drive and I rode in back with B. We decided to stop around 12 (again sticking with B's schedule) to eat at a Bob Evan's restaurant. While Mom went to get seated, I headed to the bathroom to change B's diaper. Oh, in case I didn't mention, B was teething like no body's business last week....now link that up to the diaper change. Well, to spare you the details, I had to call in back-up, literally from the bathroom. Mom started the clean-up process and I ran back out to dig another outfit out of the mountain of stuff in the car. Hence this recent post. The white onsie was saved though! A clothing miracle! Anyways, we ate, B had a couple of new things at lunch, and got back on the road. Somewhere in Ohio B woke up and I noticed a darkness creeping up his leg, yep wet pant leg. So, we pull over at a Meijer to change him and get him some more snacks. In the bathroom we find yet another huge mess. So, after another change of clothes we were back on our way. I was beginning to think we were going to run out of clothes before we could get to Canton. But, B surprised us and took a third nap that afternoon and we safely arrived a little before 5 pm.
Since then we have received all of our furniture and boxes (with a broken crib of course), started unpacking slllllloooooooowwwwwlllllyyyyy, went grocery shopping, went baby proofing shopping (Do you know the number of people that will laugh at you in any given store if you ask where the baby-proof trash cans are? A lot.), tried out a new church, took my mom to the airport, retracted an offer we had previously put on a house, and made an offer on another house. And B has his top two teeth now and is pulling up on things left and right!
