Family Road Trip

Well...we survived. :) And it was a LOT easier than I was anticipating. Having The Lion King readily available on a portable dvd player really made the long car rides easier for Ava.

Friday afternoon Wynston, Ava and I loaded up the car and headed to St. Louis MO/Edwardsville IL. Wynston's parents also went so we all hit the road together! We spent Friday evening in Edwardsville watching Aunt Leah's volleyball match. She was able to wear her "Coach's littlest fan" onesie for the first time.

Sleepy snuggles with Aunt Leah



 After the game and dinner, we headed back to St. Louis to stay with Jen and Brian, friends from college. We threw Jennifer a baby shower on Saturday for her little one who is set to arrive in October. Jen looks fantastic and almost makes me miss having my Little Miss in my belly...almost.

Some Tummy Time with Katie

Saturday evening we returned to IL for some much needed family time. Aunt Leah is at a VERY busy point in her work schedule, so the fact that we were able to squeeze in some quality time with her and AJ was really nice.

We even managed to fit in a visit with Poppy and Grandma Janie on the way home. Poppy brought out a guitar and Little Miss LOVED that. Too funny.

Ava enjoyed all the fun times we had this weekend. She was really tuckered out by the time we were home on Sunday. I hated messing up her schedule so much, but it was worth every moment!
