Marek's 1st Houston Trip

We set out in the family truckster this past weekend to go to Houston. We were all packed in like sardines. There is so much to bring with just one kid - with two - forget it . . . We actually went for a funeral of a dear friend's brother. Our thoughts and prayers are with David and his family during this difficult time.

Madelyn settled in for the long ride with her DVD player and a root beer (which is a big treat!) . . .
Marek played with all of his toys - and when I say "played with" I mean "chewed on" . . .
When he got bored with his toys - Brock came to the rescue and helped entertain him!

We stopped about 2/3 way there so I could feed Marek . . . Daddy was on "burping" duty . . .


Playing with daddy's face . . .


It's really too bad that he's so sad all the time . . .Madelyn was such a trooper!
She finally fell asleep with about an hour left of the trip. . .
Marek was very excited to see Mimi and be out of his car seat!
Madelyn got into her pajamas and made herself right at home . . .
Dziadek's favorite thing to do is cook and feed us! Just so happens my favorite thing to do is EAT!!

Maddie LOVES strawberries . . .


Marek was such a good boy all weekend - he just hung out and played . . .



This is what a sugar high looks like . . .

Madelyn loves getting her feet rubbed. I sure hope I don't spoil her too much . . .

On the way home we didn't want to stop because the roads were getting so bad. I sat in the back seat and fed my boy some sweet potatoes!

Another surprisingly successful road trip!
