What a trip! Mommy and I spent last weekend in Missouri with Grandma Barb and Auntie Leah. It was nice to finally meet my godmother, Leah. We had a lot of fun together. I got lots of snuggling and kisses. We played really hard and learned a new giggling game - Mommy says, "Rar, rar, rar" and tickles my tummy and I laugh a great big belly laugh. It's so funny! I've been trying out new sounds like M, B, R, and whispering. I've even made a couple raspberry noises, but "Arrrr" is my favorite new sound.
The hotel room in Bethany, Missouri was nice and big. There were couches and chairs and a nice long table for scrapbooking. I had my pack-n-play set up in a corner. We spent lots of time in the room while Mommy got some pages done in my scrapbook. She and Auntie Leah went in the pool and hot tub for a while. I didn't like the noisy pool room very much, so Grandma and I talked with some little kids in the lobby - they made me happy because they reminded me of my big brother William.
We did a little shopping and went out to eat. I was a very good traveler, all things considered. I didn't get as much good sleep during the day as I'm used to, so I slept really well at night! I was very happy during the day with all the attention. I even got used to my car seat after a while. I wasn't very crabby until the last 45 minutes of the trip home. I was tired and more than ready to be out of the car. That night I had another record 10-hour sleep at home in my own bed.
